{"product_id":"wondering-toward-center-kathy-a-bradley-9780881465679","title":"Wondering Toward Center","description":"In her second book of essays, Kathy Bradley continues her examination of the natural world as a prism through which to understand the human experience. With her family farm in the coastal plains of South Georgia serving as the anchor, she uses her observations of animal life, agriculture, and the seasons to create what others have called parables, but what she calls a map key or decoder ring for some of the dilemmas of twenty-first-century life. Bradley shares the story of how, through wandering, she came to know the land that became her home and how that knowledge worked as ransom to gain her release from societal expectations. These stories are inhabited by wild and unpredictable animals, civilized and unpredictable people, moons and cornfields, tides and floods and droughtseach described in sensory detail, each a metaphor rich in meaning. Bradley invites readers along on her wanderings in order that they might find their own meaning in the recounting of commonplace events.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kathy A.
