Review:
Beautifully written, poetic, and inspiring. -- John Thackara, director of Doors of Perception

Engaging and informative . . . its combination of road trip and ongoing philosophical tract reminded me of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. -- Leonard Koren, author of Wabi-Sabi: for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers

Jacobs’s story of her coast-to-coast search for the American Dream—a great, cheap house—is smart, fascinating, and fun. -- Matt Groening, creator of The Simpsons
