Description
Terry Tempest Williams's mother left her a legacy of journals, but to her surprise, they were all blank. In fifty-four short chapters, Williams recounts memories of her mother, ponders her own faith, and explores the notion of absence and presence. This beautifully crafted book is a meditation on the question: What does it mean to have a voice?
