A thought-provoking and adventurous short story that blends the thrill of a solo road trip with the beauty of rich, sophisticated language. Follow the journey of a recent college graduate who, instead of stepping into the career path her father has carefully planned for her, sets off on a cross-country road trip to discover her own identity. Along the way, she encounters quirky towns, eccentric characters, and moments of self-reflection, all while being immersed in a vocabulary as expansive and diverse as the country she's traversing.
In this innovative coffee table book, each chapter introduces a trio of carefully selected words - a verb, noun, and adjective - for every letter of the alphabet, offering both an educational and engaging experience. From A to Z, each word is seamlessly woven into the narrative, expanding the reader's vocabulary while enriching the story. Whether you're a word lover, a recent graduate, or someone seeking an inspiring journey, A Borrowed Compass invites you to explore the intersections of self-discovery, language, and the open road. Pre-order now to join this transformative adventure and impress your friends with both your vocabulary and your insight into the complexities of choosing your own path.
