People, Place & Patterns

People are messy. Places are messy. Patterns are complex.
We learn who we are through the people we care about and the people we lose.
We form our identity through the places we grew up in and the places we visit.
We spot patterns and try to understand the forces that shape our lives.

Jose-Maria Kimburi, in his third book, explores how our identity is shaped by the people we meet, the places we move through and the patterns we both inherit and create.

This is a short book.
