leaving a Way Home is an inquiry into the
complex relationship between people, place, and
story. In our memories and connections to a place, we
are given one of the few opportunities to have deep
relationships with place
—
relationships that cannot
be described in words. Place can embody powerful
emotions for us, and Leslie Van
Gelder
argues that we
ourselves are places
—
geographical points possess¬
ing unique perspectives
—
that can feel displaced,
replaced, or immovable. While the places of the
external world can be accessed through maps and a
good GPS system, our emotional landscapes are best
reached through the sharing of stories.
In the tradition of writers Lewis Hyde, Barry Lopez,
Peter Matthiessen, Joseph Meeker, Steven Mithen,
Paul Shepard, Gary Snyder, and Terry Tempest
Williams, Van
Gelder
uses both creative nonfic-
tion narrative and evolutionary biological theory to
explore complex terrain. Following Van Gelder s own
travels, the book moves from the caves of the Doidogne
lit only by the small beam of a flashlight, to an acacia
thicket in Mozambique, to a black fly—infested bay
inappropriately named
Baie de Ha Ha in
the inlands
of Quebec, to the green line wrapped in barbed wire
separating northern and southern Cyprus, to Abu
Simbel s empty stone eyes in the Egyptian desert, and
finally to the high road above Peloras Sound on the
rocky coasts of New Zealand. The author takes the
reader to each place to create a storied landscape and
explore new intellectual terrain. Van
Gelder
shows us
that our collections of experiences, unique to us, can
only be shared through the articulation of narrative.
Weaving a Way Home will appeal to those deeply-
interested in knowing how we forge relationships
with places and how that shapes who we are.
