An Inside Passage (River Teeth Literary Nonfiction Prize)by Kurt Caswell
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Although finding a way to feel at home in the world is ultimately the lifes work of us all, rarely has the search ranged as far or found as precise and moving an expression as it does in An Inside Passage. Winner of the 2008 River Teeth Literary Nonfiction Prize, Kurt Caswells narrative chronicles his travels in the rugged mountain forests of Japans Shiretoko National Park, on a vision quest in Death Valley, and to the sacred waters of the Ganges River. Whether contemplating a great blue heron as it rests riverside at the onset of a storm, reflecting on a beloved students untimely death, walking through the Navajo reservation, or receiving the blessing of a Hindu priest, Caswell unerringly finds the moment of truth. His journey also takes us across the landscape of his marriage, both its initial sweetness and its eventual failure. The ensuing inner dislocation echoes a larger estrangement that makes more poignant Caswells quest to find a place he can call home. About the AuthorKurt Caswell is an assistant professor of creative writing and literature in the Honors College at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. His essays have appeared in numerous publications, including Isotope, Ninth Letter, Northern Lights, Potomac Review, and Matter.
