A journey

"A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless. We find after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us."

Join us on Cornflower Books, if you will, as we travel with Charley.

Lovely quote. Reminds me of "Every day is a journey and the journey itself is home," from the opening lines of Basho's Narrow Road to the Interior. I've avoided Steinbeck since being traumatized by The Red Pony at the far too tender age of 10 or 11, but you've convinced me to reconsider.
