A Journey of the Heart is a 47,000 word non-fiction journal in the American literary tradition of philosophical travelogues. Harry’s journey across America in 1986 with his grown son opens a dialogue as wide as the Midwestern plains. The two generations, born from vastly different Americas, can never be reconciled, but they can understand each other. And in frank dialogue, Harry, his marriage failing, confronts his past, and his assumptions about what the rest of his life holds. Throughout this account of a two-week trip in a pickup truck, the American landscape, both awesome in natural beauty, and garish and tacky in its exploitation, is itself a character with which the reader must contend.
