How to Cook a Moose
“Maybe it’s the combination of the wild, beautiful landscape, the narrative drama of extreme seasons, and the human struggle to survive in such a rugged place, but there’s a long literary tradition of people who’ve written books about their experiences of moving here, growing up here, coming back here, homesteading here, or living off the grid in the far remote North Woods.
And aside from the intrepid natives, this place also seems to be filled with people like me, people who came here “from awa...y” and fell in love with Maine’s strong sense of community and fierce work ethic, granite and hemlocks, cold north Atlantic, marshes and coves: people who arrived as newcomers and stayed because they felt a deep sense of belonging here, of being at home.
I grew up in the Arizona desert and always felt alienated by that stark, grandiose, arid land. Its beauty was undeniably awe-inspiring, but my soul craved trees, shadows, dark places to balance the light, texture and contrast. I love the seasons and climate in New England, the geography and fauna, the changing light, the big, dramatic sky above and the intimate, invitingly human-scaled land below.MoreLess
