By exploring local, historical, and personal sources, she invites readers to see an unmapped territory of the mind informed by these distinct regions of the United States. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSuggesting that mundane physical places and daily routines can possess significance beyond the immediate, \u003ci\u003eWhich Way Was North\u003c\/i\u003e offers elements such as wild grapevines and country cemeteries, along with subway preachers and weeds emerging from sidewalk cracks, as vital starting points for reflection. Fundamentally, Wiese's poems show that our individual powers of observation remain the most life-affirming response to the existential questions posed by our surroundings, regardless of where we happen to call home.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anne Pierson Wiese\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807179310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807179314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e LSU Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/13\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.20d","brand":"Anne Pierson Wiese","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44245179564287,"sku":"9780807179314","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_61746423-4923-4006-909f-085ea438cda1.jpg?v=1693926586","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/which-way-was-north-anne-pierson-wiese-9780807179314","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
