Last Book?? O heartbreak.
Annie Dillard is my all-time favourite essayist. She has shoved me awake, expressed with power what I had only been able to feel, engaged me wholly soul and intellect, and made me want to write.
She's still young. Maybe just a 10 year rest is all she needs.
and thank you for compiling all this. A priceless resource.

Thank you for your list of Annie Dillard blurbs! What are the odds that Google would lead me here. I was desperately trying to remember a book that had an Annie review on the cover, and was pulling my hair out. Last Places: A Journey Up North! Yay!! I found it!! And Pilgrim at Tinker creek will always be on my short list of faves.
