Written as a series of autobiographical essays, A Field Guide to Getting Lost draws on emblematic moments and relationships in Rebecca Solnit’s life to explore issues of uncertainty, trust, loss, memory, desire, and place.

I joined this group because I have long wanted to join a bookish group that would broaden my reading horizons. In fact, it was thanks to the Life’s Library book club, an online community run by YA author John Green and his personal assistant Rosianna Halse Rojas, that I had even heard of this book.
