About this listen

This book is my philosophy, a combination of stoicism, existentialism, Platonism, and Daoism, written (mostly) in the style of a classical Taoist text for no other reason than that it amused me and seemed like a good idea at the time. I hope this unique and exotic style allows you see my perspectives on values, politics, society, wisdom, and religion with fresh eyes and an open mind. There are 85 chapters within this book, and beautiful art created by Lisa Win, who had previously worked on my book 13 Rules: To Not Be a F**king Cuck.

Unlike many of my previous books, this book does not contain any adult themes or language and is suitable for all ages, although some of the subject matter regarding politics and society may be boring for younger listeners. My goal was to make an accessible book filled with (hopefully) timeless wisdom that I could proudly point to as an explanation of what I believe, why I believe it, and why you should consider it as well.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Applied Logic

Quick, concise. It’s a great book which provides some great insights on the logical arrangements between: man, nature, self & collective, men and women… I highly recommend this book.

Full of Truth Nuggets

The Way of Monkey is full of plain, practical truths on how a strong person can navigate a culture that inspires weakness. I recommend this book to any free thinker.

This book gave me peace of mind.

I HIGHLY recommend this book to everyone. Especially if you are a man in the western world. It's 45 (1 hour and 18 minutes without speeding up) minutes long at about 1.8x to 1.9x speed setting. You can get through this book several times in 1 day. I've listened to it well over 100 times and continue to listen at least every other day. Probably one of the best stoic/ philosophy/ Taoism books I've ever gotten my hands on. Just buy it. It will cease the tormenting mind chatter persisting every day. And at the very least it will put you on the path to acceptance or possibly enlightenment. Cheers.

TFM Does It Again !!!

The narrative approach and the Zen teachings are a good way to live your own way as men. For other genders, I'd also recommend this them as well.

One hour of pure gold.

TF Monkey sums up all of the practical aspects of known philosophy into one place and about as concisely as is possible.

I own this on audible. One hour may not seem like a great value for one credit, but it is so concentrated as to be worth 20 credits.

I purchased this book in hardcover after finishing the audio version. It is enough of a landmark of concentrated philosophy to be permanently part of my physical library. The author has also more than earned the support.

Where is the PDF?

It was mentioned that by buying you will get PDF, there is no in the library. Other than that (no complaints) there are some very interesting idea 's in that book.

Overhyped

I was referred to this book by several sources on youtube. I am throughly disappointed overall. Perhaps the newer generations have never read classics like Zen Flesh, Zen Bones, and may find this book helpful. I am disappointed. There are a few good stories I like, but overall I will never read this book again.
