"Itâ€™s an irritating reality that many places and events defy description. Angkor Wat and Machu Picchu, for instance, seem to demand silence, like a love affair you can never talk about. For a while after,you fumble for words, trying vainly to assemble a private narrative, an explanation, a comfortable way to frame where youâ€™ve been and whats happened. In the end, youâ€™re just happy you were there- with your eyes open- and lived to see it."
