Refusing to buckle under the pressures of family and political traumas, the sojourners in this collection of stories are unified by themes of creative expression and of love - how we define it, how we are impelled by it, and how we are lifted by it.
Scrabbling for ways to believe in themselves and the world, the spirited, heart-driven people who populate these stories find surprising pockets of hope in their sojourns in the wild.
