About This Book
A photographer on assignment in Guatemala. A doctor meeting a cancer survivor in the Copper Canyon of Mexico. A woman facing down her unexpected pregnancy at a bluegrass festival in North Carolina. A draft resister arriving in Canada during the Vietnam War.
In these short stories by award-winning Canadian writer Lesley Krueger, we meet people at a crossroad in their lives. Travel has taken them away from their roots, stripping away the protections of daily life. Now they must confront decisions they've been avoiding.
Seven stories, seven life-changing decisions.
Newly published in electronic format, Hard Travel has been praised by the Globe and Mail of Toronto for its "subtle, deft strokes," by the Winnipeg Free Press for its "human appeal," and by the Vancouver Sun for its "most vivid and original imagery."
"Hard Travel is a book about change," according to the Vancouver Sun, "shifts in the axis of understanding that alter perception irrevocably. Each story builds to a crystalline moment of realization that heralds a new phase of life. Krueger does not judge the value of these changes, she observes and interprets."
Hard Travel is Lesley Krueger's first published book. Her fifth novel, Time Squared, is due out in September, 2021.
