In her extraordinary new memoir, Shelter, Sarah Stonich proves it is possible to connect a family through the land鈥攖o bridge the gap of generations separated by the great distance of time鈥攖hrough the clues we leave behind in our few acres of earth. With a careful investigation of the landscape and its inhabitants, plant and animal alike, she repairs the familial line between her father and her son. Filled with humor, and hovering skillfully between the extremes of nostalgia and snark, she writes from a place of honest curiosity, with a humble appreciation for life鈥檚 small things. Her prose carries the melody of the woods, and a rhythm only realized by those who鈥檝e surrendered to the timelessness of their surroundings. Where we can search for the tiniest and greatest reasons for happiness. With tenacious wonder, she searches the bogs and the marshland for the dark parades of hidden life and hints of what came before, from leaf impressions in stone to splintering dinosaur bones. Of equal importance are treasures of the manmade sort, trinkets of the past that hold apparitions of ancestors. Clues for our grandchildren who might one day search for us among the trinkets they dig up in the shelter of the woods.
