Golf in the Kingdom by Michael Murphy

1.0

A short story followed by a lazy amalgamation of 1-2 page mini half-baked essays and, in one case, a list of a hundred people. What? Writers pull that together. Tell me it is reflective of the separateness of our world, fine, I call it one star effort.

Admittedly my expectations were very high, particularly for those who claim to be pursuing such mental, universal, spiritual wholeness; but the first part of the book was 2-3 stars, the second was zero stars if not negative. It felt like a series of random mediations, but here of the ADHD type that lasts a page or two before being distracted by some other thought and then distracted again.
