Description
Inland gathers emotional power as it moves across the grasslands of its narrator's imagination, spanning multiple worlds and places. A man writes in his library, while an editor receives writing from the Institute of Prairie Studies. These overlapping worlds are bound by recurring motifs and deep feelings of intimacy and betrayal.
Recurring themes emerge, including a fish pond, fig-tree, child-woman, and colours white, red, and green. As the book moves to its close, these motifs come together in a powerful exploration of identity and place.
The result is a deeply personal and evocative work that blurs the boundaries between reality and imagination.
