Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek (1974)

I heard from several people that I would like this book, but I fail to see the reason. I've read 66 pages at a gruelingly slow pace. So far, the author is describing her experiences while living in a cottage in the woods. She hasn't offered any insight to her experiences, just descriptions of the animals, the changes with the seasons, etc. It seems pointless if she doesn't expound on her observations. But perhaps there is a deeper point to the book which is far beyond my understanding.

At any rate, I'm shelving this one until later.
