William Homestead takes readers inside the classroom, where lost students mingle with students who think they are "found." Striving to figure out how to guide both groups, Homestead ruminates on the unfolding of his inner life, including his own struggles with formal schooling and the game of grading. He also turns to the writings of imperfect yet inspiring Henry David Thoreau, who turned inward and discovered the blessings of being lost. This book posits that climate crisis is ultimately a spiritual crisis calling us to reset the compass. Lest we lead lives of quiet desperation, we desperately need an educational system that mirrors this reality, embracing the infinite extent of our relations. SIGNED BY THE EDITOR on the opening page.
