i recommend sailing as a soul building experience for anyone. you used to be able to go on floatplan.com and hop on a sailboat around the world. sailing by its confines allows a boundless life drawn upon the rules of nature.

it is the best dream i can dream.

moi aussi. for me it usually ends up to be of the literary or film sort. virginia woolf seems to encourage my restlessness more than anything. diary is quite disturbing, but certainly falls into the adventure cateogry. is the first image from the america's cup?

Einstein's Dreams!

I read this book while traveling and was gratefully enchanted by all the different stories in the book. I think it would be a great warm up to Virginia Woolf.

Enjoy!

Einstein's Dreams, I say. It's a light delicious poem about time.

Einstein's Dreams! I read it - it was great, very unique and interesting book.

I've read these and on balance I'd say Virginia Woolf. Of course the order probably doesn't matter if you're going to read all 3, but I still think VW.

Jenny said...

V Woolf. I just picked up 'Orlando'.

Both Woolf + Einstein's Dreams at the same time? Einstein's Dreams can be read in bits and pieces... I love this blog. I stumbled across it months ago and stop by every day. Thank you, Lee.
