Doerr, a fiction writer, wins an award that provides him with a place to stay and writing time in Rome for a year. The problem? His wife has just given birth to twins and his life has forever changed.
Doerr spends a tremendous amount of time writing about how he is having trouble writing. If you can get past that, there is great beauty to be found in the writing he achieves.
Et vemodets mesterverk!
Jeg har en yndlingssjanger, kombinasjonen av essay, reiseskildring og memoar. Den følsomme blandingen av emosjoner, kunnskaper og virkelighet. Denne er slik.
