The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating by Elisabeth Tova Bailey

5.0

I’ve read this twice: the first time in college and again earlier this year. A slow-burning tale of a bedridden woman who goes on a vast adventure of research about the gastropod. It’s much more charming and beautiful than it may sound. She presents her findings in a literary way that gives her experience with an unsuspecting snail a touching narrative.
