Finally got around to reading this book. Like the River Ouse itself, this travelogue meanders through the British countryside allowing its dual narratives to unfold. The first and briefest one recounts Laing’s own adventures in the river. The second supplies us with a variety of historical events that are linked to the river itself.

I know I've said this before, but I am now going to say this again, Olivia Laing is a genius.
