A review by jaimcham
For the Time Being by Annie Dillard

5.0

I wanted to run around in the streets after reading this. Dillard careens better than just about anybody; she looks for answers in everything, goes everywhere, dips into history and science and religion and draws parallels between seemingly unlike things, and she does it with more eloquence and sensitivity than a single person ought to have a right to have. This book is so decadent it drips.

If this woman were a preacher, I'd be in church everyday.
