George’s celebration of holidays is a double celebration. He celebrates his life while folding in registered holidays. His family is central to all the chaos making for a delightful and inspiring story.

The year begins positively with George and Rachel running every single street of their local town. Just days before the country goes into lockdown, they take on the 20 miles of the Grizzly. A race so muddy that firefighters are stationed at the finish line to hose down runners. Then the year takes a dramatic turn. Food shortages, homeschooling, quiet roads, home haircuts, yoga, Rachel’s new marathon a month challenge and a walking holiday...in a different part of Devon.

Following the success of Jarhead, Anthony Swofford assumed he had exorcised his military demons - but as every veteran knows, that isn't exactly how it works. In these searing, courageous pages, Swofford struggles to make sense of what his military service meant, and to decide - after nearly ending it - what his life can and should become. Consumed by drugs, booze, fast cars, and the wrong women, Swofford almost lost everything and everyone that mattered to him.

Nothing new here about the human condition
Revisado: 06-24-12
What disappointed you about Hotels, Hospitals, and Jails?
The author reads the book- a mistake. Writing and reading are different talents and being good at one doesn't indicate you'll be good at the other. He writes about events which range far and wide in emotion, and yet the entire read is monotone.
What could Anthony Swofford have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Write something worth reading. He writes on nothing new to the human condition. People are reading/listening to this book because the author is famous.
How could the performance have been better?
Different reader. Write something with insight. Give us a reason for dedicating 8 hours of our life to listening to him.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment. Nothing new in the human condition - no insight, no take away, just shitty (as he said numerous times) writing (all short sentences but not pithy or interesting) dull.
Any additional comments?
Writes about the human condition - everyone has a story like this and if that is what we wanted to read with no valuable conclusion- than we all are writers of this book, we just didn't spend the time telling the world or particular story in the gray sad monotone view he did.
