![]() And I recently enjoyed Great Bear Wild which pushed me to finally pick up Grizzly Years, which has been waiting patiently on my shelf ever since Walking It Off more than two years ago now. ![]() You recall that I was impressed by Peacock’s Walking It Off. I talked a lot when no one was around, especially to bears. This week, it was Doug Peacock’s searing, precise, deeply felt writing in Grizzly Years.Īfter Vietnam, I caught myself saluting birds and tipping my watch cap to sunsets. But at some point I can’t take it all in…Īnd then there’s that one book that just forces me to slow down. I’m not unhappy with my output, and I love to read books and learn new things, and the more the better. One a day, ideally and often it is that quick. I’m reading with the finish line in mind: finish this book, write it up, start the next. I’ve quit my full-time job, and now my employment consists of writing book reviews (and any additional editing work I can get). ![]() I’m busy – buying one house and selling another, getting rid of most of our furniture and one car, arranging to ship the other, planning a cross-country move and a goodbye party, and honoring social commitments with lots of friends because I don’t want to miss a chance. I have a confession to make: I have been reading quickly lately. ![]()
