For those of you who only know Roeg by his darker films; be prepared to be surprised. This is enlightening and light; lilting and deep; all at once2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Comments on Nicolas Roegs new book THE WORLD IS EVER CHANGINGBy Sara RomillyFascinating insight into one of our greatest directors. Not so much autobiographic but more vignettes and observations about his life and love of making movies . Very readable.5 of 6 people found the following review helpful. sighBy L. filosaUntil he begins to sound like Shirley MacLaine s illegitimate brother; this is just a wonderful book. The last few chapters are all about the probability of past life experience and the fascism of the scientific method. It is sad that maestro Roeg is unable to bask in the glory of human achievement that was birthed by rational creative thought. You almost feel that he would be ok if they had sacrificed virgins to appease the gods during hurricane sandy.Two thirds of this book is a great read..
