Zorba the Greek Audiobook

" Great book... I was confused at the starting but kept myself reading it because Tim Ferisss had recommended it. Must read. "

" I think this is my fourth reading. It's timeless and always holds something new for me. It's such a good perspective when things get serious. "

" I think many will use words like "sexist" or "irreverent" to describe this book. I know those thoughts came to mind at times as I plowed through the story. But Zorba is too much for this story. He cannot be contained in these pages. Dance, Zorba! Eat! And continue to spout your unconventional ideas! You speak with the voice of God. "

" A brilliant story, enchanting narrative and deep meditation. One of my favorite books, definately worth reading! "

" Enjoyed this more than I expected to... and it was well printed - the last line at the end of a right-hand page, so you turn over expecting more, and are disappointed to find it has finished. "

" Our protagonist is an intellectual who admires the passion and simplicity of his companion Zorba. They live minimally on the beach at the edge of a small island town. A Mediterranean On The Road , but without all the traveling. "

" This was a wonderful fictional tale with insite on two trains of though about God. A good read for anyone. However, you should be aware of the time period in which this book was written and disregard the thoughts on women and look at it from a purely philosophical point of view. "

" To appreciate an amazing writer. "

" Inspirational. Changes your perspective on life & how you should live it. Highly recommended. "

" Complete waste of time. I hated the way women were portrayed and treated in this book, I hated the slothfulness and glutenous ways of the men, and I hated, HATED how dragged Buddhism through the mud-- although, I would have felt the same for any religion had it been drug through this brainless book. "

" One of the best books I have ever read. I felt so good, so inspired while reading it. This is probably the only book that I wanted to start all over again right after I finished reading it. I am so glad I decided to get it, I would have been a lesser person had I not read it. "

" People's History of the United States 1492 to Present "

" It was, for my own experience, a new (& wonderful) way of seeing the main anthropological question of what is a human being :) just fits with me. "

" Absolutely amazing. It has changed the way I think. "

" Going to review in detail soon. So much to say about this curse of a book! Alexis Zorba, I'm not done with you yet - wait till I'm well-rested and recharged with viciously vindictive energy. "
