SUMMARY:On the Moors of Omaha: Essays with Trebbe Johnson
DESCRIPTION:Trebble Johnson neither hides from pain nor romanticizes joy. In the distinctive voice for which she is known\, she explores how the true value of a sacred site is not always where we think it is\, how a motorcycle ride upended a fear of desire\, how it’s possible to make friends with a clear-cut forest\, and other pieces that bring startling new perspectives to things we often take for granted. These sixteen essays not only chart one woman’s journey through a passionate life\, they inspire all of us to open up to the marvels that are waiting to reveal themselves. \nJoin Trebbe Johnson for an author reading of On the Moors of Omaha: Essays at Buffalo Street Books!
