‎ROBERTS SUZANNE‎

‎Almost Somewhere: Twenty-eight Days On The John Muir Trail‎

‎University of Nebraska Press Lincoln: 2012. Softcover. Brand new book. Day One and already she was lying in her journal. It was 1993 Suzanne Roberts had just finished college and when her friend suggested they hike California's John Muir Trail the adventure sounded like the perfect distraction from a difficult home life and thoughts about the future. But she never imagined that the twenty-eight-day hike would change her life. Part memoir part nature writing part travelogue Almost Somewhere is Roberts's account of that hike. John Muir had written of the Sierra Nevada as a "vast range of light" and this was exactly what Roberts was looking for. But traveling with two girlfriends one experienced and unflappable and the other inexperienced and bulimic she quickly discovered that she needed a new frame of reference. Her story of a month in the backcountry�confronting bears snowy passes broken equipment injuries and strange men�is as much about finding a woman's way into outdoor experience as it is about the natural world she so eloquently describes. Candid and funny and finally wise Almost Somewhere is not just the whimsical coming-of-age story of a young woman ill-prepared for a month in the mountains but also the reflection of a distinctly feminine view of nature.

‎Wolves And The Wolf Myth In American Literature‎

‎University of Nevada Press Reno: 2009. Softcover. Brand new book. The wolf is one of the most widely distributed canid species historically ranging throughout most of the Northern Hemisphere. For millennia it has also been one of the most pervasive images in human mythology art and psychology. Wolves and the Wolf Myth in American Literature examines the wolf's importance as a figure in literature from the perspectives of both the animal's physical reality and the ways in which writers imagine and portray it. Author S. K. Robisch examines more than two hundred texts written in North America about wolves or including them as central figures. From this foundation he demonstrates the wolf's role as an archetype in the collective unconscious its importance in our national culture and its ecological value. Robisch takes a multidisciplinary approach to his study employing a broad range of sources: myths and legends from around the world; symbology; classic and popular literature; films; the work of scientists in a number of disciplines; human psychology; and field work conducted by himself and others. By combining the fundamentals of scientific study with close readings of wide-ranging literary texts Robisch astutely analyzes the correlation between actual living wolves and their representation on the page and in the human mind. He also considers the relationship between literary art and the natural world and argues for a new approach to literary study an ecocriticism that moves beyond anthropocentrism to examine the complicated relationship between humans and nature. S. K. Robisch is a former professor of American Literature and American Studies. He is currently an independent scholar who lives in Indiana. "Robisch raises ecocriticism to a new level of interdisciplinary rigor and range. His wolf book should become a new model for the study of animals in literature." �Glen Love author of Practical Ecocriticism: Literature Biology and the Environment "This book offers a paradigm of ecocriticism that is based on thorough knowledge of its subject both the literature and the animal that inspired it and that draws on science and at every step considers the implications that our stories have on our relationship with the actual world�or in this case with real wolves." �Ian Marshall author of Peak Experiences: Walking Meditations on Literature Nature and Need "Wolves and the Wolf Myth in American Literature is dense with information but Robisch is a companionable disarming and clear-thinking guide." �Oregon Historical Quarterly "S. K. Robisch's work wonderfully confronts wolves in American literature and culture as an ecological reality from which human readers scholars and critics simply cannot escape." -Studies in American Naturalism University of Nevada Press, Reno: 2009 paperback‎
