Review:
I have used an English translation of Labyrinth in my classes for years and students often express amazement at how contemporary it feels. This new version of the venerable classic makes Comenius’s allegory is even more engaging and accessible for modern readers. Comenius invites modern readers to take off our “rose-colored glasses” and see the world as it is so that we can also find a better path to meaningful existence.
