A Field Guide to Getting Lost by Rebecca Solnit is a beautifully written exploration of how uncertainty and disorientation can lead to growth and discovery. Combining memoir, philosophy, and cultural history, Solnit reflects on moments of loss and transformation in her own life while drawing connections to art, film, mapmaking, and landscape. Through these meditations, she invites readers to consider getting lost not as a failure, but as a way to uncover what truly matters.
