When Chris Dombrowski burst onto the literary scene withBody of Water, the book was acclaimed as a classic (Jim Harrison) and its author compared with John McPhee. Dombrowski begins the highly anticipatedThe River You Touchwith a question as timely as it is profound: What does a meaningful, mindful, sustainable inhabitance on this small planet look like in the anthropocene?
He answers this fundamental question of our time initially by listening lovingly to rivers and the land they pulse through in his adopted home of Montana. Transplants from the post-industrial Midwest, he and his partner, Mary, assemble a life based precariously on her income as a schoolteacher, his as a poet and fly-fishing guide. Before long, their first child arrives, followed soon after by two more, all free beings in whom flourishes an essential kind of knowing [], whose capacity for wonder may be the beacon by which we see ourselves through this dark epoch. And around the young family circles a community of friendsriver-rafting guides and conservationists, climbers and wildlife biologistswho seek to cultivate a way of living in place that moves beyond the mythologized West of appropriation and extraction.
Moving seamlessly from the quotidiandiapers, the mortgage, a threadbare bank accountto the metaphysicaltime, memory, how to live a life of integrityDombrowski illuminates the experience of fatherhood with intimacy and grace. Spending time in wild places with their children, he learns that their youthful sense of wonder at the beauty and connectivity of the more-than-human world is not naivete to be shed, but rather wisdom most of us lose along the waywisdom that is essential for the possibility of transformation.
We are matter and long to be received by an Earth that conceived us, which accepts and reconstitutes us, its children, each of us, without exception, every one. The journey is long, and then we start homeward, fathomless as to what home might make of us. fromThe River You Touch
