About this listen

(Narrated by the author)

A dramatic search of self-reconnection and renewal in life’s many transitions and the transformative power of pilgrimage. For Maryanna Gabriel, the unexpected death of her artistic mother would change everything. She needed answers, not from others, but from herself. Leaving her forest home on Salt Spring Island, in Western Canada, she travels to Europe on a life-altering solo trek of 800 kilometers from France to Santiago, in Spain. From a bomb scare in Paris, to strangers with messages, and a fellowship of fun, lightening up and letting go, this is her journey into the mystery of the mother-daughter relationship and the chaos it instilled.

At times meditative yet punctuated with humour, the pilgrimage takes place in a compelling European tableau where legends of saints and miracles abide. The rich history, art, and architecture of the Camino entwines with her backstory and incorporates the legends of the greats who walked it long ago. At last, the physical hardship cracks open the last of her resistance, only to bring her face to face with what she most needs to know.
