Book Description
A collection of short stories of the divine feminine spirit as she mysteriously appeared in the lives of people in search of a great love. She might be playing at Valentine's Bar, rapt up in a reverie of romantic calling or in a cross Atlantic night of love, tenderly unfolding in a communion kiss. The stories are told through the eyes of a man who still waits for his true love. "I lay still until the next point in time aligns my heart with hers. What I understand now, is that love is a total commitment, a boy carelessly follows the call, but a man won't waste a woman's time." ""Like a poetic dream that lures us all unto a path of curiosity and love, She Journeys tells us the story of the many paths of kindred souls; one that embraces the mystic consciousness within us all."" -Casey Leasure Author of Color of a Woman's Heart

Traveling Heavy
Author: Ruth Behar
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 0822354675
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 243
Book Description
Traveling Heavy is a deeply moving, unconventional memoir by the master storyteller and cultural anthropologist Ruth Behar. Through evocative stories, she portrays her life as an immigrant child and later, as an adult woman who loves to travel but is terrified of boarding a plane. With an open heart, she writes about her Yiddish-Sephardic-Cuban-American family, as well as the strangers who show her kindness as she makes her way through the world. Compassionate, curious, and unafraid to reveal her failings, Behar embraces the unexpected insights and adventures of travel, whether those be learning that she longed to become a mother after being accused of giving the evil eye to a baby in rural Mexico, or going on a zany pilgrimage to the Behar World Summit in the Spanish town of Béjar. Behar calls herself an anthropologist who specializes in homesickness. Repeatedly returning to her homeland of Cuba, unwilling to utter her last goodbye, she is obsessed by the question of why we leave home to find home. For those of us who travel heavy with our own baggage, Behar is an indispensable guide, full of grace and hope, in the perpetual search for connection that defines our humanity.

Book Description
2020 Banff Mountain Book Competition Finalist in Adventure Travel In Journeys North, legendary trail angel, thru hiker, and former PCTA board member Barney Scout Mann spins a compelling tale of six hikers on the Pacific Crest Trail in 2007 as they walk from Mexico to Canada. This ensemble story unfolds as these half-dozen hikers--including Barney and his wife, Sandy--trod north, slowly forming relationships and revealing their deepest secrets and aspirations. They face a once-in-a-generation drought and early severe winter storms that test their will in this bare-knuckled adventure. In fact, only a third of all the hikers who set out on the trail that year would finish. As the group approaches Canada, a storm rages. How will these very different hikers, ranging in age, gender, and background, respond to the hardship and suffering ahead of them? Can they all make the final 60-mile push through freezing temperatures, sleet, and snow, or will some reach their breaking point? Journeys North is a story of grit, compassion, and the relationships people forge when they strive toward a common goal.
