I am enamored by these brilliant Green brothers. I enjoyed this series of essays on musings of random things we experience in the Anthropocene including: Piggly Wiggly, vaccines, Monopoly Board game, Harvey the movie, different trees, birds etc and then the author rates each of these things with a star rating. You learn about the back story of each rating, amongst some existential thinking. Why are we here and what is our purpose? I recently heard the author speak and really enjoyed his thoughtful articulate responses. He said he often thinks about "why do we suffer and why is suffering so unfairly distributed? He also thinks no one should be dying from TB, "I hate TB and hopefully someone in the audience will live long enough for TB to no exist and they can piss on its' grave." He left the audience thinking about "how do you choose between your passions and what people have expected from you?" You only get one life so live your life how you want! I love all of his books, and should have known Id love his nonfiction collection of essays as well. So thoughtful and wise
