Becoming Animal: An Earthly Cosmology por David Abram

I wanted to love this book, as I'm deeply on board with a mutualistic, interdependent view of our place in this world but couldn't get on board with Abram's voice. He overstated points, justified very little, and mostly presented a lot of overwrought prose instead of anything interesting or persuasive. I'm sure there are readers who will swoon over this book, but it left me cold despite wanting very much to like it.

The Spell of the Sensuous: Perception and Language… por David Abram

Quick Review: This book was beautiful and ended up being more than I expected it to me. I left it feeling hopeful and encouraged that we can do better in this world. I want more people like this!

The Spell of the Sensuous: Perception and Language… por David Abram

For me this is a really wonderful take on the role of artists (among other things) and how it could change as the culture changes.

Abram is far more responsible to the potential of the subject than most authors would be; that is, he's both curious and scholarly, scrupulous and generous. He began as a sleight-of-hand magician doing anthropology, and the simple intuitive brilliance of that combination is a thread throughout the book.

The Spell of the Sensuous: Perception and Language… por David Abram

This is a brilliant and subtle book whichc makes us question about our relation with nature, perception and our environment. It is really a spiritual book.
