This book is a map of the journeys we take each time we face a crossroads in life. Our choices become our adventures: to leap forward, look backward, root down, take flight, enter into relationship or go it alone. In poetry, prose and beautiful photography, Kara B. Imle tracks a path through the depths and heights of human love, madness, longing and spiritual awakening.
Taken from her years of traveling the United States and abroad, these pieces show a deep kinship with the natural world and a wanderer's spirit that is always, within each journey, seeking home. Part meditation, part memoir, part love poem to the human race, this is the perfect gift for yourself and the people you love.
