Eduardo Santiago reviewed Become what you are by Alan Watts (Shambhala pocket classics)
Review of 'Become what you are' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
I wish I could embrace Alan Watts; so many people I respect love his writings. I don’t: he reminds me too much of that too-clever Debate Club bully who twists fancy words and esoteric quotations until you’re too dizzy to follow. Watts is no bully, and his message is a valid important one, but something about his approach just turns me off. Partly it’s his reliance on judeochristian mythology: kind of like basing your argument on Obi-Wan Kenobi sayings.
