This was a very bewildering reflection on what it means to experience the world. It contains the lighthearted musings of a man who finds himself thinking, as one does, about what it means to know something. Do we know anything? No, and that’s okay, because we manage without. It’s wistful and nostalgic, funny and melancholy, lighthearted and inward. It is a perfect book for those who don’t know what they want, but can go with the flow. Life, if nothing else, is bewildering, and maybe we should celebrate that more.
