Lost geography
"Charlotte Bacon explores the transitions that sixty years visit upon the members of a family - a Saskatchewan woman and her Scottish husband; their plucky daughter, who moves to Toronto; and her remarkable daughter, who lives in France with her Turkish-English husband. Lost Geography takes the complexity of migration as its central subject: Why do landscape, work, and family lock some people in place and release others?
In settings both rural and urban, these people respond not only to new environments and experiences but to the eruption of sudden loss." "Readers are invited to see how habits of survival translate from one generation to another. How are we like our forebears? How does circumstance make us alter what our heritage has told us is important?"--BOOK JACKET.
