Mr. Wilson's Cabinet of Wonder by Lawrence Weschler

The book explores a peculiar museum in Los Angeles, run by a man named Mr. Wilson, which houses a collection of bizarre and often unbelievable exhibits, including a bat that can fly through walls and a two-headed tortoise. The author delves into the history and philosophy of the museum and its eccentric owner, while also examining the blurred lines between reality and illusion, and how this ambiguity affects our perception of the world. The book is a blend of journalism, history, and philosophical musings on the nature of truth.
