i'm slogging through zen, it's a bit trite so far (opening pages). im struggling to continue. when will it stop talking about the climate and blackbirds and start saying something interesting?

Yes it starts slow, but keep at it. It starts to get interesting about halfway into the book, if I remember correctly.

One also doesn't need to enjoy something to get something very worthwhile out of it. Not apologizing for Zen, but all books have rough patches to someone.
