Inhaltsangabe „Die Frau mit dem Loch im Herzen, das war ich.“ Gerade 26 geworden, hat Cheryl Strayed das Gefühl, alles verloren zu haben.

Wild is author Cheryl Strayed's memoir about her three-month long hike up the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) in 1995. Only 26 years old at the time, she walked the trail alone. Though she had done a good bit of camping in her youth, she was not a backpacker. Her motivation was the classic seeker's quest ...
Cheryl Strayed tells of her time of hiking the Pacific Crest Trail solo. I enjoyed the story. I liked her inner strength that kept her going when others turned back. She grew up a lot on the trail and learned she had the strength to go on even when she did not have the skills. She learned what she n...
"Nothing did. Nothing would. Nothing could ever bring my mother back or make it okay that she was gone. Nothing would put me beside her the moment she died. It broke me up. It cut me off. It tumbled me end over end. It took me years to take my place among the ten thousand things again. To be the wo...
I read nothing but good reviews of this collection, and I'm afraid that I'll do nothing but just throw another one on top of the pile.Even if you aren't the sort who likes advice columns or self help, "Sugar's" columns are so beautifully written, poignant, and compassionate that they can speak to al...
...who has a hard time reviewing memoirs? I mean, yeah, there are ways of reviewing non-fiction (essays, for example, are fairly straightforward as far as I'm concerned) but as far as memoirs go, I'm stumped. And yes, there is the bit where I'm trying to decide if the author is being self-aggrandi...

This book is a literary work and should be assessed as such. For me, the decisions Cheryl Strayed makes in her life are not open to discussion. H...
Once again, the Book Group has gotten me to read something that I would never have picked up for myself. I had heard great things about Cheryl Strayed's Tiny Beautiful Things from the folks at BookRiot, but I classified the book as "inspirational" and put it on the Nope List. I'm not sure why I have...
I’m beginning to think that Cheryl Strayed is one of the most remarkable humans I could ever know (in the figurative rather than literally knowing her personally sense). With wit and humor and wisdom and personality and so much heart you can’t stand it, Strayed, under the auspices of “Sugar,” mainta...
This book will break your heart. It broke mine. How can a collection of advice column questions and answers have such power? It’s all Sugar. By now, everyone knows that Sugar is actually the author Cheryl Strayed. This does not alter the fact that I think of her as Sugar, as an entity all her own an...
