A Field Guide to Getting Lost by Rebecca Solnit

3.0

---

Pretty good. Kind of rambling, in that she kept leading me down twists and turns, various tangents, until I forgot the original point and wasn't quite sure where the stream of consciousness was leading. Sometimes this would lead to insightful little nuggets, thoughtful gems either as conclusions or parceled out along the way; sometimes it felt more like meandering to nowhere special. In essence: it was exactly like heading off into uncertain territory and getting lost, with both the aimlessness and special wonder that entails.

This would be better to read while traveling or on a journey, I should have saved it for that.
