Horror for Newbies
A Goodreads user asked this question about Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail:
I haven't read the book yet - I'm waiting for it to come in at the library. She says in the book that she changed her name to Strayed after she divorced her husband. That's very weird. A search on the internet says she has two siblings, both with last names Strayed also. I guess she changed their names too. I've done long distance hiking and on the surface I doubt her integrity. Any comments?
Matt This was marketed as nonfiction, but you're right to be suspicious. This book may have been informed by biographical experiences, but I agree with you…moreThis was marketed as nonfiction, but you're right to be suspicious.
