Publisher's Synopsis
This book received a Golden Crown Literary Award in 2010, and was described as "soul-refreshment of the highest order" in Edge Magazine. This is a story about crossing the lines of gender and class, refusing to be anything but absolutely free. Chris, youngest daughter of an impoverished aristocratic family in Scotland, cannot be contained within the confines of her upbringing. At first a rebellious tomboy, she becomes a promiscuous teenager, a barefoot hippy, a political activist, a radical lesbian, a car mechanic, a hog farmer, and a builder. Always a truth-teller and an intrepid explorer, she investigates inner and outer worlds alike. Finally, dabbling in mysticism and miracles, Chris finds what she has been looking for: vast, unconditional, unlimited love.
