midgazer 's review for:

The Odd Woman and the City by Vivian Gornick
3.75
emotional lighthearted reflective medium-paced

I walk, I observe, I take in as much as I can everywhere I go, I think and think and ponder about this or that much like Vivian gornick does so I enjoyed and resonated with a lot of the things she spoke about. I always enjoy women putting into words things or feelings I might have only grasped at in my own mind. 

But
It does have a moment or two of hard to read commentary about white and black people that I feel didn’t add anything of value but did point to her obvious privilege
