Put the pages together and the process facing the contradiction of self examination of being oneself, where the examination changes the self being observed. Everything is personal becomes an abstract philosophy that depersonalizes. Then the awareness of depersonalization creates new personal emotions. Deep convoluted simplicity, perceived honesty which hides what? This is one work worth many rereading in different times of life. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Reading "Notes To Myself" is one of those rare experiences that comes only once in a great while. The editor who discovered the book said, " When I first read Prather's manuscript it was late at night and I was tired, but by the time I finished it, I felt rested and alive. Since then I've reread it many times and it says even more to me now." The book serves as a beginning for the reader's exploration of his or her own life and as a treasury of thoughtful and insightful reminders. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

This book was a gift to Mom by Dad back in 2005 - and it's been with us ever since. I don't know why I suddenly got the urge to read it a week ago, but I found this collection of blank verses at the perfect time in my life.
Apart from a few pages scattered with tidbits that have not aged well at all - Hugh Prather was really on to something here. Orwell said that "The best books are those that tell you what you know already.", and I feel that this holds here - there's nothing that feels inaccessible, pandering, or otherworldly - in fact, Notes to Myself is utterly readable and a solid work of art. I won't spoil it, but suffice to say, there's something here for everyone. ( )
