The Alaskan landscape so vast, dramatic, and unbelievable
may be the reason the people in Haines, Alaska (population
2,400), so often discuss the meaning of life. Heather Lende
thinks it helps make life mean more. Since her bestselling
first book, If You Lived Here, I d Know Your Name, a
near-fatal bicycle accident has given Lende a few more
reasons to consider matters both spiritual and temporal. Her
idea of spirituality is rooted in community, and here she
explores faith and forgiveness, loss and devotion as well as
raising totem poles, canning salmon, and other distinctly
Alaskan adventures. Lende s irrepressible spirit, her wry
humor, and her commitment to living a life on the edge of
the world resonate on every page. Like her own mother s last
wish take good care of the garden and dogs Lende s writing,
so honest and unadorned, deepens our understanding of what
links all humanity.
