Praise for Eckhart Tolle and his work
"[Oprah] Winfrey calls the book 'a wake-up call for the entire
planet, one reader at a time. It helps us to distance ourselves
from our egos . . . and to open ourselves to a higher self. . . .
It helps us to stop creating our own suffering and obsessing over
the past and what the future might be, and to put ourselves in the
now.'"
—USA Today
"I would do anything to be anywhere in the vicinity of Eckhart
Tolle."

"A gentle journey, one that could take you to a spectacular
and very special place of new awareness and deeper
understanding."
—Neale Donald Walsh, author of Conversations with God
"One of the best books to come along in years. Every sentence rings
with truth and power—the power to bring you into the gap, the space
between our thoughts, where we find, as Eckhart so beautifully puts
it, deep serenity, stillness, and a sacred Presence."

According to Tolle, who assumes the role of narrator as well, humans are on the verge of creating a new world by a personal transformation that shifts our attention away from our ever-expanding egos. This idea is well realized through Tolle's remarkably well-paced narration. Naturally, the author understands his material so thoroughly that he is able to convey it in an enjoyable manner, but Tolle's gentle tone and dialect begs his audience's attention simply through its straightforward approach. Something about this reading just seems profoundly important, whether one agrees with the material or not, and listeners' attention is sure to be captured within seconds of listening to Tolle's take on the universe in which we live. Originally released in 2005, both book and audiobook were reissued when Oprah Winfrey chose the title for her book club this year. A Penguin paperback. (Feb.)
