A solid non-fiction collection; there‘s not a one I disliked. Easy to pick up and put down. Jumping around is okay but the selections are loosely grouped together by theme. “An Animal Looks at Me” and “Capital Realism” were favorites while “The Unknown Soldier” was most thought-provoking.

“Bird” for #CuriousCovers June 5th edition. The tagged book has been in my TBR stack forever. I read a handful of the stories for a writing class. Someday I will read the rest...
