Description

Side Walks is the epic story of a woman’s discovery of clues to her family’s history; clues that were buried, not just in closets and under bed frames in dusty boxes, but in secrets, traumas and loss.Side Walks begins in a Northern Michigan graveyard 30 years ago and takes the reader from the Michigan wilderness of the 1880’s to Nazi Germany in WWII; from self-determined immigrants to disenfranchised American Indians; from the chains of mental illness to the bonds of sisterhood; from gardens to gravestones and back again.Side Walks is far more than family history – it’s ultimately the story of Julie having to reckon with her own secrets, traumas, and losses and the way strong, resilient women – some living, some long dead – helped guide her through the wilderness back home.

  • Companions on a Vivid Journey
Format: Paperback
In her very literal journey to understand her family history, Ms. Pappas holds us so closely beside her that we’re practically there with her. She transports us to her childhood haunts with sensitivity and attention to detail…vivid memories of dolls, tea cups, elderly aunts and uncles, family trips, and a beloved, workaholic Dad who smoked far too much. No surprise, we are soon immersed in our own childhood memories, and realize our utter lack of appreciation for all it took for us to "become." Ms. Pappas has taken the walk; she’s done the work. We are her fortunate companions on the journey. ... show more
