The audiobook begins at 5 hours, then when you get to the end you need to return to the start of the recording!
The philosophy is an excellent analysis and delineation of our modern malaise - it doesn't go all the way (that requires Jesus Christ) but someone already a Christian should find it complementary, in the sense of completing the necessary metaphysics.
This recording is excellent (I have it on audiotapes).
Note: The narrator is Michael Kramer, who also does the Brandon Sanderson novels.
I read it a long time ago, but I think the follow-up, "Lila", is even better.

ReplyDeleteI was introduced to it in the late 70s by friends in Law School, I have read it at least 3 times since then...
ReplyDelete@pyrrus - I was lent a copy of ZAMM mid-70s following a month's attendance at an Outward Bound course, by our group leader - who had already discussed it with me while on a five day expedition through the Cairngorm wilderness in Scotland.
ReplyDeleteI lost touch with the chap after returning his book, but he is now moderately 'famous' as Bill Ryan of 'Project Avalon' - look him up on Google or YouTube - he is part of the David-Icke-type 'axis'.
I have reread it many times - at least 10? including twice as audiobook.
