Written with wonderfully honest language, this book could almost end up in the Self Help department. Person Irresponsible takes us on a long, and at times lonely, walk up the West Coast of America. Inter woven with totally seeable descriptions of the mountains and valleys, the woods and deserts, and especially the tent condensation and variety of loo choice, I really felt I was on that walk. I loved meeting all the people she came across on the trail. The leaving of them, and the finding of them again further down the road! Apart from anything else, it's funny, and her self depreciating chatter also takes on the huge subject of Alcoholism and her tandem path to recovery. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. It's a gem.
