Title: Richard Rose speaks loudly and clearly.
Review: Richard Rose is a complex human being who knows something that few people know. In this collection of short works (poems, essays and stories) he weaves an intriguing pattern of philosophy, conviction and experience that resonates within me. I was inspired by much of his poetry (e.g. "The Mirror" on p. 91 is particularly haunting and speaks of a profound experience of the Absolute), but the part of the book I found most interesting was part III, a more freehand set of writings on many different topics that really spoke to me. His collection of aphorisms at the end are penetrating to anyone paying attention. I find myself wondering more about this person and his life. Who is he? Why are these topics important to him? How does he know?I recommend you check out this book, and let Richard Rose speak to you of what he knows.
