Walking to
Mercury: Starhawk - Walking to Mercury, a younger Maya treks through Nepal
carrying the ashes of her mother on her back as she searches for a reunion with her
sister. Along the way, she finds messages (through the pages of her best friend Johanna's
diary, in letters from her former lover Rio, and in notes from her elusive sister) that
raise spiritual mountains rivaling the peaks of the Himalayas. She struggles with her past
and hopes to find out why the power that once pounded through her like a drumbeat has
fallen silent. However, like the metal mercury, the answer to her troubles continually
slips through her fingers. While eco-feminism plays a supporting role, the star of Walking
to Mercury is everything that Starhawk has to tell us about being human. As Maya
discovers, no matter how independent one is, one's life is inextricably entangled with the
lives of others--parents, siblings, friends, lovers, and even strangers who nudge us in
one direction or another (sometimes imperceptibly) despite our best attempts at isolation.
