John Oliver Simon
 
Like the traveler of its title, Caminante goes out into the world, stimulating our curiosity and empathy. Written during Simon's nine-month sojourn through Latin America...

There is plenty of time for love between station and station.
Each revolution of the wheels
brings me closer to greeting you
closer to saying goodbye.
Lord Of the House Of Dawn
