Heart-warming jewel of a book

This treasure of a book is a collection of essays (and a few poems) on friendship. The stories show how varied friendships can be, and how essential they are for human life. There are, among others, stories of life-long friendship, regret over lost friendship, and friends who only meet once in life. This book does not have to be read in one sitting, and would make a lovely gift for a friend. It is indeed bread for the journey.
