Olivia Laing’s THE TRIP TO ECHO SPRING was reviewed in Vanity Fair, Slate, The Petoskey News, and People, which gave it 4/4 stars and called it a “beautiful, fascinating meditation.” Vanity Fair called it “an extraordinary journey” and said, "Laing’s blend of reportage, analysis, and self-discovery is to be savored.” Slate said, “Laing’s writing is beautiful, her insights frequently surprising and powerful.”
