Review

"This book is the breadth of a man who was once described as having only one permanent address (the New Yorker) through Scotland, Spain, France, Greece, Switzerland, and all the aspects of the Americas. In its humane way, it is the essence of a life become universal because it has been stripped of all comforting camouflage -- all languages or any, all places or none. He writers like a waking dream... Reid's real home, and his real identity, are embedded, in every sense, in the prose of 'Whereabouts'." -- Ian Bell, The Scotsman.
