Book Review Sacred Ground & Holy Water by Lyn Fuchs
Coffeetown Press
It seems there has never been a lifeless moment in Fuchs travels: from encounters with bears in Yosemite, fast bone rattling train journeys in Central America, paddling with orcas, taking partial in a Day of a Dead in Mexico, experiencing Samurai in Japan, or simply reflecting upon a cockroach which shares his sunrise showering or a beetle he discovers in his navel.
Sacred Ground as well as Holy Water mixes humor as well as irony in to practice which can only come from spending a poignant partial of ones life roving a world.
There are over a dozen Tales of Enlightenment ranging from a unique, to a mundane, to a simply bizarre or unlucky, all told in noted humorous prose.
This is not classic transport nonfiction where you get mislaid in detailed descriptions of people or place.
It reads some-more similar to a narrative equivalent of channel surfing simply skipping to a most noted parts of someones personal memoirs.
Most of a chapters last less than a dozen pages, which is disappointing as a settings themselves could lead to some-more endless narratives as well as descriptions of place as well as cultural interactions.
However, expanding upon place doesnt seem to be a indicate of a book.
Rather than take upon a traditional transport story, Fuchs has simply selected poignant moments of his travels as well as common them in a array of short, smart anecdotes, done all a some-more enjoyable as most travelers competence be able to sympathize with most situations (already mentioned above) which Fuchs writes about.
