Summary
Thirty-two women writers, including CanLit luminaries Sharon Butala (Lilac Moon, The Perfection of Morning), Lorna Crozier (Whetstone, Apocrypha of Light), and Alison Pick (The Sweet Edge) speak frankly about real-life travel experiences. Whether around the corner or around the globe, each woman explores both the inner and outer journeys that they have undertaken. From muddled romance to illegal smuggling, and isolated retreats to rigorous development work, these women have done it -- unexpectedly, sometimes, but always without regret.
