WALKING CHICAGO'S COAST: A 63-Mile Journey to the Indiana Dunes
From his doorstep, Michael McColly takes readers on an urban pilgrimage of 63 miles through the metropolis of Chicago ending in America's most urban of national parks, the Indiana Dunes. Part memoir, part travel narrative, part environmental reportage, McColly sews together this metropolis as he walks, reflecting on the city's layers of history and its troubling divides as well as muses on his years living in this grand polyglot mecca of the Midwest.
THE AFTER-DEATH ROOM
Part memoir, part travelogue, and part reportage, an HIV positive writer takes readers on a journey into heart of the HIV/AIDS epidemic as he reports and reflects on the many healers and activists he meets as he travels through South Africa, India, Southeast Asia, West Africa, and back to the streets of Chicago.
