Wendy Lesser

Room for Doubt (eBook, ePUB)

A Memoir

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Room for Doubt is Wendy Lesser's account of three separate but interlocking occasions for doubt: her stay in Berlin, a city she had never expected to visit; her unwritten book on the philosopher David Hume; and her long friendship with the writer Leonard Michaels, which constantly broke down and yet endured. Through this unusual journey, Lesser in the end shows us how, once examined, things are never quite what she thought they were.
