BPS Review: The Book of Form and Emptiness, Ruth Ozeki ( October 2022)

A couple of weeks after the book is closed and I’m sure many of you are still thinking about it (well, those of you who haven’t burned it to cut down on your gas bills anyway).

(PS. just in case you’re wondering, 17% gave it a terrible score, 35% okay, and 48% good or great)
