Finally! A book worth reading!
About This Life by Barry Lopez is difficult to categorize. It is somewhat autobiographical, but it is not really the story of his life. It deals with moments from his life, but is not a memoir. He's a creative storyteller, but it's not a novel of any kind. This book is simply described as "journeys on the threshold of memory." These memories could belong to anyone, but they are truthfully his own.
The first section of the book (which I'm completing) deals with his "Out of Country" memories. The chapters are short enough to be taken in small doses, and they don't need to be read in succession or in any particular space of time.
