"This travel diary is short and sweet in its entirety, but each individual chapter delves into a separate location or adventure. It can be devoured in a day or two, or savored slowly with reflection. Morris has a quiet wit with subtle observations abo"

| I hope none of my real-life friends read this review because I want to buy this book for them. It is so funny and completely unsentimental. It beautifully captures now alien children are, how other and raw. While the adults are puzzled and wrongfoote ...more | |

“I had been working hard at my book; it was one of those rare days of authorship when everything seemed to go right; the words flowed unbidden from my pen, and the time had passed unheeded, so that it was a shock to realise that I had been writing for some six hours.”

“For these beings, fall is ever the normal season, the only weather, there be no choice beyond. Where do they come from? The dust. Where do they go? The grave. Does blood stir their veins? No: the night wind. What ticks in their head? The worm. What speaks from their mouth? The toad. What sees from their eye? The snake. What hears with their ear? The abyss between the stars. They sift the human storm for souls, eat flesh of reason, fill tombs with sinners. They frenzy forth....Such are the autumn people.”

“By reading the writings of the most interesting minds in history, we meditate with our own minds and theirs as well. This is to me is a miracle.”
