A review by angus_mckeogh
Searching for Stars on an Island in Maine by Alan Lightman

3.0

Ruminations about the afterlife, the existence of god, the meaning of life, the fate of our species, and a plethora of theories, writings, and opinions about all of the aforementioned. I find Lightman exceptionally brilliant and I’m actually a big fan of his fiction. And while this topic was really interesting and his writing was sound and at times beautiful, the books content didn’t really blow me out of the water. It won’t be coming back to mind years down the road. So better than just average, but not among my favorite books of all time.
