First purchase from this shop. Every rereading turns up something I missed. Glad I finally picked this up.
Honestly wasn't sure what to expect, but I'm impressed. It rewards patience more than any book I've bought this year.
Grabbed this during a weekend order. I found myself reading passages aloud just to sit with them. Not a light read, but far more accessible than I feared. Recommended if you're ready to do the work.
Took a chance on this and glad I did. The ideas are old but land with surprising force today. A few pages arrived with light corner wear, though nothing serious. Happy enough with the purchase.
