Sketches from a Life Paperback - 2000
by George Frost Kennan
Written originally as a series of entries in a travel diary and now considered one of the most important memoirs of the time, national bestseller "Sketches from a Life" is Kennan's peerless, impressionistic record of his experiences with 20th-century history. His account is rich with the insight of a major historical participant.
First line
It is a strange thing about cities: there are some which are simply collections of buildings-inanimate, impersonal things; and there are others, like Hamburg, which reach out for you, when you live in them, and spread the tentacles of their beauty and their evil quietly around you.
