The Narrow Door: A Memoir of Friendship by Paul Lisicky
3.0
it’s interesting reading this now as a time capsule of 2008-2010 amidst all the turmoil surrounding us now. i didn’t find this remarkable in style, but it’s always nice to have a generous writer open to sharing such significant relationships.
this was a fast read but i suppose im not too interested in the crowds of people that make up this book (writers, ppl in publishing, ppl in academia, rich cushy ppl, mostly white ppl i’m assuming) that’s not to say there isn’t richness to their lives.
i think my tastes mostly didn’t sync with the content and writing of this book. i do like the non-linear framework as that feels like the best way to capture a person over the course of an extended amount of time.
