Literary Titan Review: But the memoir isn’t all quirky misadventures. What’s most powerful is the subtle unraveling of her own assumptions. Leoma is honest about her … expertise, especially when it comes to linguistics. But then, in a scene that humbled even me as a reader, … a colleague gently reminded her …“It is their language and thus their decision”. That moment comes back again and again, and it’s the soul of the book. She’s not there to fix anything; she’s there to walk alongside...
There’s something about surviving in a brutal climate with nothing but a fan, peanut butter on sour crepes, and a sense of humor that made me love this book.
I admired Leoma not just for what she did there, but how she let herself be changed by the place.
Life in a Tumble Dryer is perfect for readers who love honest travel writing, especially memoirs with heart, humor, and a dose of humility.
