nakutski's review
4.0
Have been meaning to read this for a long time.
An overall strong collection of writing, with some pieces that really stood out for me. (Don't have my copy at hand but the one about sleep, the one about playing guitar and the penultimate one come to mind first.) Like all anthologies it is a mixed bag, I enjoyed most of it. Some pieces I understood but struggled to sink into the writing. The majority came across clearly in their message and that in itself is a big feat. Looking forward to 'On Anxiety' and 'On Relationships'!
