4.5 rounded down because I think to get to 5 stars I would need to re-read, almost bath in it. Because it is full of seeking, both intellectual and also linguistic, the two together. A few hours spent trying to articulate the meaning of life to oneself, to strip away identity and find existence. Meditation is a wordless path to this same place, how much harder to get there with words, but how important to try if we are to understand each other.
