Book Reviews of Leisure: The Basis of Culture
Book Review: Excellent!
Summary: 4 Stars
Pieper at his usual excellent self. He asks some insightful questions about our modern world, and about how we misunderstand the purpose of leisure, sloth, and Sabbath. The second half was not quite as striking, but still great.
