Following her bestselling The Architect of Desire, Suzannah Lessard returns with a remarkable book, a work of relentless curiosity and a graceful mixture of observation and philosophy. This intriguing hybrid will remind some of W. G. Sebald’s work and others of Rebecca Solnit’s, but it is Lessard’s singular talent to combine this profound book-length mosaic – a blend of historical travelogue, reportorial probing, philosophical meditation, and prose poem – into a work of unique genius, as she describes and reimagines our landscapes.
