This travel narrative/memoir ""is funny, sad, exuberant.... I am almost giddy with pleasure."" Carolyn Osborn, author of Durations, A Memoir and Personal Essays. ""One thing a writer can do is create a life into which the reader can slip for just a while and think it would be pleasant to stay. That's what Willcott does."" Award citation, National Association of Newspaper Columnists."
