Book Reviews of Desiderata: Words For Life
Book Review: Prose = 5, Pictures = 2
Summary: 4 Stars
On their own, the pictures are nice. I thought they detracted from the text, which I have read before in a different edition (and gave away!).
If you can understand the text without letting the pictures have any influence, great. I think this poem (?) is all the wisdom anyone needs to get through life.
Summary of Desiderata: Words For Life
Presents the text of the well-known inspirational poem that advises one to "go placidly amid the noise and haste" because "you are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars."General Books
