I Came All This Way to Meet You by Jami Attenberg
4.0
In I Came All This Way to Meet You: Writing Myself Home, Jami Attenberg's frankness and transparency grip readers, as they watch her struggle and succeed, inching closer towards her goal of writing.
Her first essay focuses on her relationship with her mother, and I was touched by the way she honestly and gently shares. Attenberg's skill is apparent, and I was utterly delighted by what I view to be a perfectly formed sentence in chapter two, one that goes on and on with the sparsest of punctuation but heaps of interest when describing her hometown.
This is a love story about writing, with affirmations and encouragement for others, told through her travels and relationships.
(I received a digital ARC from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.)
