Publisher's Synopsis
Sailing solo to Panama, the author grapples with finding the link between taking ownership of one's life and accepting fate. In this entrancing memoir, Guillaume deliberates life's big questions while chasing horizons for the sake of it. He cleverly draws the parallel between the challenges of crossing oceans under sail and navigating the passage through life, drawing on the experience and philosophical gems of wisdom accumulated through a life well lived. The blatant honesty compels the reader to take part in the reflection and re-evaluate their own values.
There is nowhere to hide out there alone on the ocean; especially not from oneself.
Passage serves as a lantern to fellow travelers; those wrestling with the balance between means and meaning, those juggling the accountability of parenthood, and those struggling to look in the mirror. Seasoned with humor, it is hard hitting at times... but so is life.
