Summary: Gorgeous but not easily accessible
Comment: This poet has such heart and such command of the language. The sections on why we work are brilliant and stimulating. My criticism is that it needed better editing. I think he wandered at times, and it may it hard to go on at a few points. But overall, it is worth going after, and the poetry alone in it is worthe the price.

Summary: Poet as management consultant
Comment: David Whyte is a poet from Ireland, living in New Zealand, who is known for his work as a workshop facilitator and business consultant. Last year _The Heart Aroused: Poetry and the Preservation of the Soul in Corporate America_ engrossed, as no other business-related book has since Tom Peter's _Search for Excellence_ or Covey's _Ten Habits_. Whyte's recent _Crossing the Unknown Sea: Work as a Pilgrimage of Identity_ is especially good for anyone undergoing a career shift. A unique offering by this poet-as-management-consultant, presents an invigorating perspective from which to view business life. If you find it difficult to imagine corporate culture and human creativity as anything except mutually exclusive, these readable volumes are an agreeable remedy.

Summary: Helped Me to Move
Comment: This is a book recommended to me by a close friend, and one that has helped me to change my sense of myself, my sense of my work and my possibilities for the future. Crossing the Unknown Sea compells the reader by its mesmerizing stories and its unusual insight to take another step forward whatever that next step might be. My copy is marked and underlined from beginning to end and sits by my bedside for reference when I need a touch of inspiration and courage. Highly recommended.
