By ATIBA ROUGIER, 7/15/2015. I received my copy of Harper Lee’s new book, Go Set A Watchman, in the mail today. This book will keep me company on the 13-hour flight from JFK to New Delhi, during my four hour layover, and with me on the 1.5-hr flight from New Delhi to Bhopal (I will pack Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird to keep me company on my 15-hour flight home in August).
I’ve attached a photo of the other books I will be carrying with me in my backpack to keep me company on my month long research adventure.
Also, here is a first-draft list of what I will be bringing with me — minimalism is the theme for the month. I have always wanted to be the guy who travels light and with the bare essentials. This flight/trip will give me the chance to put that into practice and become the man I have always envisioned.
