Thanks to An Adventure in Reading for this fun weekly feature.
This week...
I am hanging out in Chicago with Peter Ferry, a high school English teacher and travel writer. Besides his hometown of Chicago, Peter has taken me along on his travels to Mexico, Thailand, and (my favorite) canoeing in the wilderness of Canada.
- Travel Writing by Peter Ferry
This is an odd book - a novel where the author is the main character, blurring the line between memoir and fiction - but a very interesting book. I've been to Chicago a few times, but I'm wishing I knew it better so I could fully appreciate all the references to favorite restaurants, bars, and parks. The novel's action is interspersed with the main character's travel essays, so I'm enjoying those locations as well.
Where is your reading taking YOU today?
Oh that sounds interesting. I enjoy different reads... anything that can take me out of the norm for awhile.
