Book Reviews of The Heart Aroused : Poetry and the Preservation of the Soul in Corporate America

Book Review: Grendel's mother
Summary: 5 Stars

I enjoyed this book. I listened to the audio version which may well be more fun than reading it.

Superb journey into the world of work. exposes how we sell our soul to the devil of work. We need the money and status... or so we think.

Meanwhile deep underground lurks not only what we are afraid of, but worse still the mother of the thing of which we are afraid. Somewhere in all of us lurks that small voice, that wants to give the chief exec "ZERO" for all his or her idiotic plans. How many of us have the courage to do this at our workplace? How many of our workplaces need this?

This is a superb book about self discovery, and it can be done as well at work as anywhere else.
