A chorus of essays from a variety of voices,
backgrounds, and experiences, exploring what it means to be human and
true to yourself.
What does it mean to be yourself? To be
born here or somewhere else? To be from one family instead of another?
What does it mean to be human? Collected by Lori Carlson-Hijuelos, A Path to the World showcases
essays by a vast variety of luminaries—from Gary Soto to Nawal
Nasrallah to Ying Ying Yu, from chefs to artists to teens to
philosophers to politicians (keep your eyes peeled for a surprise
appearance by George Washington)—all of which speak to the common thread
of humanity, the desire to be your truest self, and to belong.
