A review by andforgotten
The Abundance by Annie Dillard, Geoff Dyer

4.0

Being a 'best of' collection, the essays included in The Abundance lack the thematic and narrative structure I think would be present in the original collections. It does, however, serve as a great introduction to Annie Dillard's work by including essays on a broad spectrum of topics. I was especially fascinated by her nature writing, which is, I think, where her prose is the most thrilling and electrifying. I will definitely find more of that to read in the future.
