Review of 'The world of silence' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

For the Poets' Bookshelf: a work of lyric philosophy and must-read for any creative thinker. Picard's books obsessively compare the Godless present to an imaginary, unitary, eternal past -- but his binary rhetoric allows copious aphoristic statements that show us how to look anew at the world, whether we accept Picard's reactionary, Catholic worldview or not.
