Reseñas editoriales

Mark Nepo’s choice to read his own work is particularly effective here, as the book contains deeply personal details about his own struggles to stay true to himself through adversity, and his narration really brings those struggles to life. His fourth nonfiction book may be labeled self-help, but it’s also part poetry, part philosophy, and part collection of moving parables from folk legends to stories from Nepo’s own past. His kind-sounding voice adds a compelling note to his argument for living with an open and accepting spirit, but hearing him explain the reasoning behind this argument by drawing from his own experience adds richness to the book that no other narrator could have achieved. Nepo’s beautiful, simple story of getting over his lifelong fear of dogs by adopting a golden retriever is easily the book’s most effective guide to finding inner courage. He also shares anecdotes from the lives of Rosa Parks, Nelson Mandela, Alexandr Solzhenitsyn, and many other famously courageous people, but it is when he turns to defining courage with stories from his own life that his narration reaches remarkable poignancy.

After Nepo beat cancer more than two decades ago, he was compelled to share his first-hand knowledge of the necessity of acceptance and surrender in the face of life’s challenges. In Finding Inner Courage, Nepo attempts to connect his philosophy in the face of adversity to the definition of courage. In his view, acceptance and surrender don’t mean “giving up”, but “standing by one’s core”, even in the face of fear. The warmth and welcome in his voice convey the inner strength he has developed over a lifetime of facing fears, learning from mistakes, and continually acknowledging that there are no shortcuts to living an examined life.

Resumen del Editor

A book on inner and outer courage from Mark Nepo, author of The Book of Awakening (recently listed as one of "Oprah's Ultimate Favorite Things").

Mark Nepo is a beloved teacher, poet, and storyteller. In this book he invites us to live from our inner core in ways small and large, every day. That is all we can do in life, and all we need for our lives to bear witness and contribute, to make the world a better place. To listen to the stories in this book is to find our own place of courage and peace.

Great book, vivid stories to inspire courage

I initially resisted this book but after 30 minutes, I found the flow and the story telling compelling and consuming. The book provided lots of reflections and insights in a positive but not saccharine way.

Whole hearted, full-blooded, human awesomeness!

What great grace it is to have Marc reach in to the very core of my being and articulate what I have always failed to find words for. This is a book of freedom for those who want to be free.

Really?

Any additional comments?

I tried to like this. I listened to it from beginning to end, wanting to like it. The whole book felt like the author was trying desperately to find some deep message in everything that happens in life. It felt forced and not at all inspiring. When he related a dream where a 10 year old boy was thrilled to get a desk drawer to play with as a dollhouse and used paper clips as dolls, I gave up any hope that there was a point or message in this book....On the upside, the author did a nice job with the reading. But I will never waste my time with another of his books....
