Once You Get Far Enough Away, You're on Your Way Back Home - Paperback

by Anthony Huerta Velasquez (Author)

This collection of essays may be short, but Anthony Velasquez covers a lot of ground, taking us from California's Central Valley to the rocky shores of South Korea, with stops in Europe, Cairo, and even upstate New York. Velasquez's laid-back, conversational tone displays his west coast roots, yet underneath the chilled surface lies a dexterous mind that is constantly asking questions and finding humor in any given situation. Once You Get Far Enough Away, You're on Your Way Back Home is an at times wry, lovely meditation on life's boomerang effect, and most importantly, just what it means to really belong.-Chris Tharp, author of The Worst Motorcycle in Laos and regular contributor to National Geographic Traveller
