Publisher's Synopsis

When Terry Tempest William's mother died and she went to open her mother's journals, they were all empty. In 54-chapters that unfold like a series of yoga poses, each with its own logic and beatuy, Williams creates a lyrical and soaring mediation on the mystery of her mother's journals.
