Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to Zen Is Right Now is like taking a breath of fresh air – it's invigorating and life-affirming. Brian Nishii's narration is a perfect fit for the material, bringing a sense of calm and focus to each lecture. The way he delivers Suzuki's quotes, with a gentle emphasis on key words and phrases, really allows the reader to absorb the teachings. My only criticism is that the audiobook feels slightly disjointed at times, with abrupt transitions between different topics. However, this minor quibble doesn't detract from the overall impact of the audiobook, which is to invite the reader to slow down and appreciate the beauty of the present moment.
