challenging
informative
slow-paced
I'll refrain from giving it a clear star rating. I think it probably works well for the intended audience, but is not a great secondary source for someone who A) can't read Greek and B) isn't already intimately familiar with Aristotle's philosophy at perhaps a graduate level. Overall there were some very useful pieces of information, especially about how to read Aristotle, Aristotle's metaphysics and his definition of being, and how the Poetic fits into Aristotle's body of work and how it can be interpreted based on Aristotle's positions in other works. However, I'd say the majority went over my head. Probably fantastic and very interesting if you're an Aristotelian scholar, a bit more obtuse if you're a normie looking to see some different perspectives and interpretations on a classic work.
