About this audiobook

"A deeply spiritual, deeply moving book" about life on the Great Plains, by the New York Times bestselling author of The Cloister Walk (The New York Times Book Review). "With humor and lyrical grace," Kathleen Norris meditates on a place in the American landscape that is at once desolate and sublime, harsh and forgiving, steeped in history and myth (San Francisco Chronicle). A combination of reporting and reflection, Dakota reminds us that wherever we go, we chart our own spiritual geography.
