I return to the United States for the first time since moving away and quickly remember what America does—and doesn’t—feel like. Jonathan continues hitchhiking toward Canada, collecting stories that range from deeply moving to completely bizarre: strangers who pray for him, unexpected generosity, Native ceremonies, truck stops, and conversations that reveal just how differently people experience the same country. Two very different journeys through America, happening at the same time.
