The land is big and we are not. When we shove off from shore, lace up our boots, or shoulder a pack, the space around us fills with shifting configurations of adventure, anti-adventure, risk, caution, and contemplation. Alongside these, we also remain socially situated—historically, politically, and culturally—as women. And so we find reason to ask: where are the connections (and tensions?) between gender, writing, and periods of immersion in the natural world? In this conversation, we’ll discuss the hard edges, the spaciousness, and the tough questions that Alaska’s out of doors brings to the work we do on the page.
This live author discussion features authors Corinna Cook, Marybeth Holleman, Adrienne Lindholm, and Nancy Lord with moderator Libby Roderick.
