Description
Summary:Ken Wilson's ‘Wood Mountain Walk: Afterthoughts on a Pilgrimage for Andrew Suknaski' reflects on a 250-kilometre walking pilgrimage made in honour of the late Canadian poet Andrew Suknaski. Wilson's autoethnographic essay considers the possibilities and challenges of walking as a way to engage with land and community; Suknaski's book Wood Mountain Poems and the issue of cultural appropriation; what it is like to walk in a sparsely populated and arid agricultural province where trespassing laws confine walkers to roads; and walking as both pilgrimage and artistic practice.
