The Colossus of Maroussi

I'm so disappointed. What a hunk of junk. I don't know what this book is supposed to be, but a travel book, it is not. This is more like some self-centered, old-fashioned guy's philosophical blathering about a trip to Greece he took ages ago -- except it's not even interesting, nor is it funny, and it doesn't make a lick of sense. He goes on and on for paragraphs and paragraphs with no seeming point, and doesn't have anything interesting to say. The best thing I can say about this book is that the cover is pretty. Ugh.

*jerk No, I'm not ignorant, it's called autocorrect. All basic white girls have smartphones.
did you really think this was a travel book? do you know anything about miller? nothing is ever a 'just' for him. i guess his historical perspective is lost on you- which is fine. just go read eat pray love instead.
This is a REVIEW site. Thus, this is MY review and MY opinion. If you liked the book, great. Move on.Incidentally, I loathed Eat, Pray, Love.
BTW, I'm not from Texas, and you know nothing about me.
