This is the staging area for a trip down the Mississippi River from the headwaters in Minnesota to the Gulf of Mexico, starting in August 2009. At the moment, we're envisioning a journey made by canoe, but that may change as plans take shape. A project that is developing out of this journey is called (for the moment) Archives of Exile: River Voices, and that project is the focus of the conversation that's happening on this blog. We warmly invite you to read and comment!

garrison keillor
This is really just a note to remind myself that Garrison Keillor's fiction, much of it set in Minnesota, deals with the sense of home and exile very explicitly and from a number of perspectives. (He writes about Scandinavian immigrants longing for a former home in Europe and young Minnesotans moving to the cities.)
