A review by saguaros
Local: A Search for Nearby Nature and Wildness by Alastair Humphreys

DNF.

I enjoy the concept of this books, and up to the point I read there were interesting parts, but a few comments about obesity/the obesity “crisis” put a sour taste in my mouth. I don’t think he was completely fatphobic but he also just repeated a bunch of stuff that made me roll my eyes and I just can’t really enjoy his thoughts anymore. That and a few other comments, I think he’s just not an author for me.
