Debra Marquart grew up on a family farm in rural North Dakota--on land her family had worked for generations. From the earliest age she knew she wanted out; surely life had more to offer than this unyielding daily grind, she thought. But she was never able to abandon it completely. In this distinctive memoir, she chronicles this process of flight and return--not only from and to a particular landscape, but to respect and admiration for her father. Poet Marquart offers a deeply intelligent rumination on the meaning of native ground, on freedom and security, and on the forging of identity.--From publisher description. 600 10 $a Marquart, Debra K. $x Childhood and youth. 600 10 $a Marquart, Debra K. $x Homes and haunts $z North Dakota. 650 0 $a Authors, American $x Homes and haunts $z North Dakota. 650 0 $a Authors, American $y 20th century. $v Biography. 651 0 $a North Dakota $x Social life and customs. 939 $a 5879964 941 $a 7 952 $l DAPG173 $d 20240724020128.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20210924013017.0 952 $l WXPD305 $d 20151203021050.0 952 $l RAPD371 $d 20110802034507.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B45A5E182B1011DEAA7E7608A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b NIU 952 $l OAAX516 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l TRPE062 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20090701080000.0Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
