1.0 out of 5 stars
Ponderous & laborious reading,
By
This review is from: The Genesis and Geometry of the Labyrinth: Architecture, Hidden Language, Myths, and Rituals (Paperback)
I was looking forward to reading this book, and was extremely excited when I received my copy in the mail.
Wow. And 'wow' not in a positive way. There is no doubt that Mr. Conty is passionate regarding his subject matter. Unfortunately that translates to a work that is akin to wading through molasses. I found the book redundant. And redundant. And redundant. That coupled with a penchant for sesquipedalian language, (alright, I did that on purpose - his language is unnessicarily daunting), makes for a book that is almost, but not quite, impossible to finish. Lots of great pictures and drawings of labyrinths from varying cultures and ages. That's an aspect that I wish Mr. Conty has explored a bit more. Perhaps he did. In honesty, I skimmed the last half of the book. |
