Brian Bouldrey has written eight books, including Honorable Bandit: A Walk across Corsica, and edited six anthologies, including Traveling Souls. He teaches creative writing at Northwestern University and gave the 2016 keynote address to the American pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago de Compostela.
“The tremendously satisfying and uplifting sense of these essays is
the ongoing nature of human pilgrimage, whether to the center of
the self or the ends of the earth. After reading this book, I want
to go on a journey myself! Highly recommended.”—Antonya Nelson,
author of Bound
“These stories of pilgrimage span six continents, touch on eons of
history, and offer insights and quirky anecdotes told without
melodrama or excess baggage. Like Chaucer’s travelers in the
Canterbury Tales, each writer included here is a distinctive and
entertaining storyteller.”—Gillian Kendall, author of Mr. Ding’s
Chicken Feet
