Aaland explores two rivers, the literal one that runs past his ancestral home in Norway, and the metaphorical one that runs in the blood of his ancestors, himself, and now his two daughters. By the time the two rivers flow into one another, through crystalline prose and shadow fretted photographs, his story has become a healing journey of epic proportions. -- Phil Cousineau, author of The Art of Pilgrimage\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe River in My Backyard\u003c\/em\u003e is more than an exploration into the world of patricide, madness and ghost genes. Ending with a dramatic pilgrimage to holy Mt. Kailash, and atonement for a brother's sins, it provides an inspiring roadmap to inner peace and healing. The book is beautifully illustrated with both the author's photographs and vintage family reproductions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mikkel Aaland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cyberbohemia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/21\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.81d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780997261004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eAaland, Mikkel:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Mikkel Aaland is a photographer, writer, and best-selling author of over 15 books including Sweat, County Fair Portraits, Shooting Digital, and The Sword of Heaven.
