Beschreibung
"With three pilgrimages across southern France and northern Spain defining author and anthropologist Beebe Bahrami's single journey on the Camino de Santiago, [this book] recounts an inner and outer journey full of wild nature, ancient roads and history, quirky pilgrims, wise and humorous locals, and puzzling folklore. It's a ... tale of quest, initiation, and transformation following the Way of Saint James. The book is also a detective story that reveals an old mystery: why is the goose associated with the medieval Camino de Santiago, and how did it come to preserve a whole universe of pagan, pre-Christian lore in one innocent symbol?"--Publisher marketing.
