Thomas Cook has always been drawn to dark places, for the powerful
emotions they evoke and for what we can learn from them. These
lessons are often unexpected and sometimes profoundly intimate, but
they are never straightforward. With his wife and daughter, Cook
travels across the globe in search of darkness-from Lourdes to
Ghana, from San Francisco to Verdun, from the monumental,
mechanized horror of Auschwitz to the intimate personal grief of a
shrine to dead infants in Kamukura, Japan. Along the way he
reflects on what these sites may teach us, not only about human
history, but about our own personal histories. During the course of
a lifetime of traveling to some of earth's most tragic locals, from
the leper colony on Molokai to ground zero at Hiroshima, he finds
not only darkness, but a light that can illuminate the darkness
within each of us. Written in vivid prose, this is at once a
personal memoir of exploration (both external and internal) and a
strangely heartening look at the radiance and optimism that may be
found at the very heart of darkness.
