Unreadable - didn't bother This is a thin issue at only 187 pages. Most of the selections are well written, but they demand concentration and may not be of general interest. There were a few that had some energy and broad appeal which I enjoyed best, including Michael Lewis "The Mansion: A Subprime Parable" where he describes renting the largest house in New Orleans, it's very funny and reads breezily. I guess finding this piece made the book worth it. Kathyrn Miles "Dog Is Our Co-pilot" is an interesting history of Charles Darwin's pet dogs and how dog breeds have been created. Finally Gregory Orr's "Return to Hayneville" about his experiences as a white civil rights marcher in the south in 1965 is very good (also found in The Best Creative Nonfiction Vol. 3). geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
