Produktbeschreibung
"In Satellite, Simmons Buntin explores the idea of belonging--in place, in time, in family, in community--in sixteen essays written over a span of nearly two decades. The essays range throughout the desert Southwest, on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border, and as far afield as Mount Saint Helens, eastern Montana, northern Vermont, and Sweden. Buntin explores the challenges and beauty of raising a family and creating more sustainable communities in the diverse cultural and ecological landscape that is the Sonoran Desert-and, more broadly, in any American landscape. He asks the essential questions of our time, including, How broadly should community be defined? How do we realize heritage in an age of globalization? How do we find hope and renewal following personal and landscape trauma? What forms might grace take, and how can parents pass that on to their children?"--
