It's impossible for an ordinary human to exist in two places at the same time. Or is it? In Crevice: A Life Between Worlds , Anna Redsand writes that wherever she is in the world, she will always be living on the edge of Dinétah, in a place she calls "Home Not Home." Dinétah is the Diné (Navajo) name for the Navajo Nation, where Redsand grew up as the daughter of evangelical missionaries. Until she was sixteen, she didn't question whether she belonged; she was simply there. When the question arose, with it came the gradual recognition that someone who lives in an In-Between space sees, hears, and understands things not always grasped by people on either side of that split. From that vantage, Redsand tells about her not so ordinary life and about where she now stands in relationship to postcolonial Diné and Bilagáana (White) cultures. She explores her world through the lenses of language, relationship, and place––connection with the land. This book is for anyone who has questioned whether they belong, anyone who delights in experiencing new places and ways of life, or anyone who has spent a good part of their life in an interstitial space. Join Redsand in her "Home Not Home" to appreciate the insights living in such spaces imparts to our worldviews.
