Strange Stones: Dispatches from East and West by Peter Hessler

5.0

I loved all three of Hessler's previous books, but this one might be my favorite. It is made up of various short stories or essays, some of which were from previous books, The New Yorker, or previously unpublished. Unlike his previous writing, not all the pieces were from China, but I think the contrast made it even more interesting. Perfect if you only have time to read a chapter or two per sitting, since each is a new story.
