Matt Gibbons’s Reviews > The Air-Conditioned Nightmare > Status Update

The previous owner of my copy had been diligently scribbling notes in the margins of every page up until the last two pages of this chapter in which their commentary ends, seemingly given up on. And rightfully so. The anecdote that begins the chapter is completely sidelined and given no resolution instead devolving into confounding naval-gazing tedium. What substance could they have gleaned to even remark on?

I have to say it’s an interesting choice to slot a chapter’s length revery of France in a travelogue ostensibly chronicling America, but who am I…
We get it, you’re a hopeless Francophone!
