As a soldier and civilian, Steven Moore has traveled from the
American Midwest to Afghanistan and beyond. In those travels, he's
seen what place can mean, specifically rural places, and how it
follows us, changes us. What Moore has to say about rural places
speaks to anyone who has driven a lonely road at night, with
nothing but darkness as a cushion between them and the emptiness
that surrounds. Place and how we define it-and how it defines us-is
a through line throughout the collection of eleven essays. Moore
writes about where we come from and the disconnection we often feel
between each other: between veterans and nonveterans, between
people of different political beliefs, between regions, between
eras. These pieces build into a contemplative whole, one that is a
powerful meditation on why where we come from means something and
how we'll always bring where we are with us, no matter where we go.
