Adventures of Nimon: Volume 1
No Customer Reviews
Fueled by the winds of war sweeping across Europe, Raymond set sail at the tender age of 8? on a life of rugged self-determination in foreign lands far from family and the comfort of a nurturing loving home. Now as he reaches what may be his final port of call, the journey has been a remarkable one and the account of it a compelling read for one trying to make sense of how Europe, the US and the global village have evolved these past seventy years.Part travelogue, we meander the back roads and pastoral landscapes of Europe in search of the perfect meal and the ultimate chocolate. He tucks us in at night while introducing us to those who opened their homes to both him and his companions on his journeys. We want to travel the same pathway seeing the same things he has seen and engaging the world he finds with the same abandoned self he offers as a courtesy where he is a guest and not a claimant on place.Just as quickly we encounter in his work philosophical and theological reflections that are not intended to convert or persuade us to a point of view. Rather he seems to want to witness to the human need to root one's life in a search for meaning that is unafraid of what it may find and unbound by doctrine, dogma or other uniformities of thought.
