On Not Knowing. How to Love and Other Essays

A beautifully written suite of personal essays on the value of not knowing.

Amid the drudgery of daily responsibilities and under a cloud of political foreboding, there's beauty in errancy, in meandering, in tracking perception's bright thread without knowing where it leads.
