Written by the professor that inspired Dead Poets Society. Very quirky little essays with thoughts about teaching and life. I really enjoyed it. I'm going to have to pick up more of his works
From the back cover:
Each of the essays in this anthology is about "the spirit of place" and "the juncture of memory and emotions" and "where we make our most important discoveries."
