Big Sur e as Laranjas de Hieronymus Bosch

His vivid descriptions make the scenery almost a character itself. I'm curious whether personal experience or artistic influence drove this focus.

The way he weaves in Hieronymus Bosch’s work added layers to the memoir. I wonder if this interplay was planned or evolved as he wrote.

Some moments felt almost surreal while others grounded in reality. I’d love to hear thoughts on how much of it is literal truth versus artistic interpretation.
