On a pilgrimage to the Kingdom of Nepal, a group of American women trek into the Himalayas. Ava Leavell Haymon responds with language that strives to reconcile the extremes of this exotic place - danger and awesome beauty, community and abandonment, death and life, flame's heat and altitude's cold, an alien landscape and the poet's own memories.
