More about the book
<strong>It is what it is, they say, but is it? </strong> Jed McKenna has always been more about destroying questions than answering them, so it's no surprise that <em>Play</em> is more Q than A. In fact, it might be viewed as a progression through the stages of self-inquiry, each of the seven vignettes taking us a bit further along on the inward journey, the early vignettes asking the questions, and the latter ones looking at those who do ask; showing us, promising us, <em>warning</em> us, where honest and relentless inquiry really lead. But who, Jed has asked, really wants to go where this road really leads? On this journey, who you are changes with every step, and it's all about taking the next step. In the end, <em>Play </em>is what it is. Or is it? Maybe it's the journey of the examined life, or maybe it's just a playful little play. Ultimately, of course, <em>Play</em>, like life, like anything, is whatever it is to you.
