When she turned thirty, Jessa Crispin left Chicago with two suitcases and settled in Berlin before travelling around Europe. She interweaves her own experience with that of exiles such as James Joyce, Jean Rhys, William James and Igor Stravinsky, blending biography, literary criticism and personal reflection on uprootedness, reinvention and freedom.

Recommended for readers of essays and non-fiction interested in travel memoirs, exile and reinvention.
