The Catskills remembered and at the university were the two best essays IMO

I enjoyed her other work more tho

Gornick no suele fallar. Es un libro para degustar a poquitos, pasear por los Catskills, por las universidades del sur y como siempre, por Nueva York.

As someone who only left the house twice since the lockdown was implemented last March 2020, the essays in which Gornick craves human interaction and participation in a community resonated with me the most.

Gornick tiene una capacidad increíble para ponerle palabras a intuiciones y sensaciones que llevan acompañándome toda la vida.
No es su mejor libro, pero qué bien hilada la idea del autosabotaje y la necesidad de sentirse incluida pero diferente.
