Richard’s review of The Stranger in the Woods: The Extraordinary Story of the Last True Hermit > Likes and Comments

Fine book, and Chris Knight is a great character, full of surprising knowledge and emotional depth. The author, Michael Finkel, does his background research with great thoroughness. It's a quibble, and not even a serious one, but I sometimes felt he quoted other solitaries a bit too much. Otherwise a good read. Oh, sorry, a good listen. The narrator, Mark Bramhall, does a fine job going back and forth between Finkel's voice and Knights very rural Maine accent.
