informative reflective slow-paced

I read this one for research reasons, but loved it for personal ones (even if I did have the marvelous middos machine in my head when I was done).
As with all collections, the quality was a little uneven, but the narratives and experiences were a brilliant evocation of a very specific cultural experience that resonated deeply.

Absolutely lovely.
Pure nostalgia coupled with academic thought.
