Luke (korrick) | 2004 comments Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, Annie Dillard, 1974, United States, ESSAYS

"...But as her observations range well beyond the landscape into worlds of esoteric fact and metaphysical insight, each paragraph becomes suffused with images and ideas. Whether she is quoting the Koran or Albert Einstein, describing the universe of an Eskimo shaman or the mating of luna moths, Annie Dillard offers up her own knowledge with reverence for her material and respect for her reader..."

(K.B., p. 221)
