A fairy Tale For Grown Ups., September 26, 2009
This review is from: Acts of Faith (Paperback)
A man's career is ruined, his marriage has failed, and he reaches his midlife crisis. So he runs away from his life in New York City.
He rents a cottage somewhere in the Canadian forests. His new landlord forgets to give him supplies. So he's forced to leave once again in search for food in the inhabited world.
He loses his way and he meets a woman. It's a strong woman who's able to take care for herself. After a hobo existence with this woman and many adventures he winds up in his cottage again. Due to his wandering about, he loses gradually the connection with the reality of the human world. When he leaves his cottage for the second time, he begins his quest to the North, the Quest for the Snow-Goddess.
This is the story of a man who loses his touch with reality not because he's weak but because he wants a physical and a spiritual connection with Nature.
