Tracing the subtle connections and tensions between wilderness and human culture, Deming explores our need for a place within the natural world.
Inspired by four loved places - the northeast woods of her childhood, a remote Canadian island off the eastern seaboard, southeast Alaska, and the American southwest - the essays trace one woman's journey in search of a spiritual home. Throughout her sojourns in "temporary homelands," Deming reflects on natural harmony and the discord with the natural world that our culture has created.
The author discusses four locales that have connections with her life: the northeast woods, a Canadian island off the coast of Alaska, southeast Alaska, and the American southwest
