The Way of the Wild Goose: Three Pilgrimages… di Beebe Bahrami
Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.As expected in a travel memoir, this book provides insight to hiking the Camino, a large dose of history, and inner thoughts of the author. While it was pleasant to read, it didn't keep my attention. I found the history to be more interesting than the stories of the road and reflections.
Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.As someone who has long been intrigued by the Camino and also by the symbolism of geese/swans and other birds in art and history, I thought this book would be right up my alley, and I wasn't wrong. What a thoughtful memoir. It brought her journey alive for me and gave me lots to think about.
Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.I have friends of friends who have made the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. My husband and I enjoyed hearing aspects of their journey. We then found the movie - The Way - about a man who walked the Camino to honor his son. (Highly recommend!)
When I saw this book, I was excited to read about another pilgrim on this journey. When the book arrived, it was MUCH longer than I had expected. Since I am a person who usually enjoys big thick books, I began reading. I never really could get into it. I'm not really sure why, either.
I did enjoy some of the little homey things, like emailing her family, descriptions of some meals eaten, laundry, and other things that happen daily.
I have not completed this book and may not complete it. Maybe if I keep plugging along at some point, I will finish reading it. When I do, I will come back here and revise my review.… (altro)

Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.A New Age take on the traditional Catholics pilgrimage route across southern France and northern Spain on the Camino de Santiago – the Way of St. James. Partly travel writing, part spiritual journey, part simply taking adventure where you find it. Not recommended if you are just looking for a how-to guide to Camino de Santiago.
