Review title: A MASTER'S WORK
Product review: An extraordinary introduction to -- and preparation for -- the art of living and dying. "The Bardo Guidebook" is written in astonishingly elegant, simple prose, and provides a great service: the mere act of reading it diminishes one's personal pain and suffering. The book, written by a Tibetan rinpoche, is a living thing that needs to be read each day. The translation is lyrical and pellucid, yet pulls no punches; it is mountain-stream clear. If I were to live out the rest of my days with just three books, this (and something by Dickens and Faulkner) would be among them. -- BRUCE WAGNER, LOS ANGELES
