Bliv medlem af LibraryThing for at finde ud af, om du vil kunne lide denne bog. Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. A bit disappointing. Maybe it's a gen x thing. ( ) Although Sloane Crosley seems more adventurous and more in tune with her quirks, I'm also pleased to read about someone who is young, female, city-dwelling, and trying to figure life out like I am. Funny, yes. Thoughtful, yes. Essays topics include: Traveling to Portugal after blindly spinning a globe and going to wherever her finger landed; a learning disability that involves limited spatial-relations skills; getting lost in Paris; apartment/non-crazy-roommate hunting in New York; taxi cabs; an array of childhood pets; Alaska's extremeness (both good and bad). ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
HæderspriserDistinctions
Crosley's easy, charming voice in the face of minor suffering or potential drudgery has been described as a mix between Dorothy Parker and David Sedaris. In these hilarious and insightful essays, she packs up her sensibility and takes readers with her to Paris, to Portugal (where she falls in with a group of Portuguese clowns), and to Alaska (where she discovers wearing bear bells is a matter of self-defense). Then it's back to New York, where new apartments beckon and taxi rides go awry. No library descriptions found. |
