I don't read a lot of non fiction unless it's memoir or nature writing and this absolutely brilliant book combines both. Charles Foster asked himself what it was like to be an animal and studies them, not from a distance but by lying in a hole and crawling around on his hands and knees (as a badger), spending hours in a river (as an otter) and so on. In between his experiments are meditations on the creatures themselves and it all sounds so fun (despite being so arduous) that I'm tempted to do a cat's eye view of the world myself. #nowreading #mrmbookclub #200in2016 #bookstagram #monthingoa #traveldiary
