Notes
Description
Novelist Attenberg meditates on the virtues and vices of an unscripted life. In vivid essays, Attenberg recalls her couch-surfing years in her 20s, an assault she survived in college, and teaching fiction in Vilnius, Lithuania, as a "newly moderately successful writer" in 2013. She writes of her decision to eschew tradition in pursuit of art and adventure, but how, at age 40, she began to envy her more grounded, married friends. The tension between rootedness and wanderlust makes for brisk descriptions of locale: from Brooklyn on the cusp of gentrification to New Orleans, where she wrote "religiously, daily," to a chapel made of bones in Portugal.
