Review of 'This is the story of a happy marriage' on 'Storygraph'
5 stars
This was simply marvelous. I think I may enjoy Patchett's nonfiction better than her fiction, because I thought State of Wonder was just so so. This, on the other hand, was incredibly compelling. I'm usually interested in the nonfiction I'm reading, but I'm not usually as drawn into essays as I was with this one. It's hard to explain why I enjoyed this as much as I did. Just bloody good writing, I guess.
