Exceptional read. Eugene Richards’ piece was powerful and moving. It’s a book that stays with you long after you finish reading.

An interesting collection of works. Some of the essays are profound and insightful, making it a worthwhile read.

A mixed quality in the collection of essays, with only a few hitting the mark. Not a bad read but not a standout either.

Good read if you enjoy thought-provoking pieces. However, some essays felt a little too academic for my taste.

Barnes always delivers. The collection as a whole is good, but some contributions didn’t hold my attention. Worth checking out for the big names.
