Bill Bryson At Home
One of the things I really like about Bill Bryson’s writing is his ability to connect you to his theme. Doesn’t matter what it is, he pulls you right in. I’m barely into chapter 1 of his latest, At Home and he’s already dragging in Joseph Paxton, the guy that designed the Crystal Palace, and the Reverend Bayes, the same Bayes who gave us a theorem. Mind you, At Home is about the history of the home. Really looking forward to the rest of it.
