Review of Double Mirrors by Dylan Robert Tauber
Wow. This is an intense read. Not only lengthy, but it really makes you think. Mr. Tauber’s beliefs are several steps away from mine, but that does not bother me. We all have to work out our faith with fear and trembling.
There were times I read sections repeatedly to try and understand where he was coming from. I had to remind myself at times that parts of this work are sort of a stream of consciousness journal, so it doesn’t flow like most books.
The writing is raw. I felt like I should put it down sometimes because it was very personal and real.
I’m rating it a four because it was hard to follow, yet I did not feel like throwing in the towel and stopping all together. In a way, the lack of editing made it more like reading someone’s journal/diary. All in all, it was an interesting and intriguing read. It didn’t change my views on faith, but it did help me see someone else’s spiritual journey through their own eyes.
I would like to see a description on the order page.
The book does mention is it best when "combined with the website: http://DoubleMirrors.com website, updated continually, and the Project Double Mirrors CD ROM, which includes multimedia, animation, hundreds of images, and an original ambient/techno soundtrack." I did not utilize these tools during my reading.
