“The late great William Kittredge said that acts of imagination lead to acts of empathy. This wise, generous, and dazzling craft-book for the soul does just that, and in so doing resurrects in the reader the state of wonder that is so vital to our survival.”
—Chris Dombrowski, author of The River You Touch
“In The Wild Why, Laura Munson deploys self-exploration, self-sabotage, confession, contrition, ‘bonfires,’ undying love for Montana, and her own line of full-fledged writing retreats, all aimed at healing the familial, cultural, and inter-relational wounds that curtail our sense of wonder. The wonder I felt in finishing Laura’s epic? Her recipe worked!”
—David James Duncan author of The River Why, The Brothers K, and Sun House
