Abstract

Something Like Wilderness: A Journey into the Heart of the Tundra is a work of creative non-fiction that chronicles Jennifer Kingsley’s 54-day canoe expedition down Nunavut’s Back River in the summer of 2005. This manuscript explores the themes of wilderness and belonging, and it investigates the notion of intersecting journeys. Something Like Wilderness seeks to engage readers with a compelling story while articulating some of the ideas we have about wild places.
