completely different
Memoirs of a Thinking Radish by Peter Medawar; anything by Loren Eiseley or Lewis Thomas (perhaps Late Night Thoughts is a little grim for your hols); Marion Glasscoe's edition of Julian of Norwich: Revelation of Divine Love; the selected poems of Antonio Machado (ed. by A.S. Trueblood) and for fun, Making Cocoa for Kingsley Amis, by Wendy Cope, another collection of poems. Sadly, the only pbk edition of Han Shan's poems about Cold Mountain is about 50 quid ;-( or else I'd recommend that as well.
