Loved the language she uses to describe nature and her experience of recovery. This would be a great book to read when backpacking. The pace is slow, not a page turner in my opinion, but very much enjoyed her beautiful descriptions of the landscape. I hope to read her other book 'The Solace of Open Spaces' the next time I visit Wyoming or the great plains.
The first half of this book was engaging and interesting. Then she stopped actually telling the story of her getting struck by lightening. She stops telling the reader all of the details about her experience which help the reader stay grounded in story. Great beginning, weak second half.
Ehrlich recounts being hit by lightning and all that ensued because of that event. The book is beautifully written and most interesting.
