No topic is too small or too sacred, from gutting chickens to Gaudí's cathedral. Through a range of experiences--growing up in rural Nebraska, raising children, surviving cancer, becoming a writer--she explores the tenuous link between memory and truth. Joern displays a gift for mining wisdom through surprising connections, juxtaposing her father's life to the discoveries of Isaac Newton or the writer's task to the ancient art of alchemy. She weds philosophical insight and spiritual imagination and laces this amalgam with candor and wit, resulting in a work that is engaging, intimate, and illuminating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePamela Carter Joern\u003c\/strong\u003e is the author of four works of fiction: \u003cem\u003eToby's Last Resort\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eIn Reach\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Plain Sense of Things\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eThe Floor of the Sky\u003c\/em\u003e, all published by the University of Nebraska Press.
