In Episode 12 Gen and Jette talk about To Shake the Sleeping Self by Jedidiah Jenkins. Our January/February book club selection takes us from Oregon to Patagonia as we travel with Jedidiah Jenkins on the trip of a lifetime. But it’s more than just a physical journey–it’s an emotional journey as well. Jenkins reconciles his identity and upbringing as he treks down the west coast with only his bicycle and whatever he can carry. With lots of time to think, he meditates on life and desire, love and relationships, and what travel can do for the soul.
Memoir is one of our favourite genres, and To Shake the Sleeping Self was no exception. We loved this inspiring and heartfelt personal journey. It was an incredible experience to travel with Jedidiah Jenkins. We hope you had as much fun as we did.
