520    A brilliant, fierce writer makes her debut with this 
       enthralling travelogue and memoir of her journey by 
       bicycle along the Silk Road-an illuminating and thought-
       provoking fusion of The Places in Between, Lab Girl , and 
       Wild that dares us to challenge the limits we place on 
       ourselves and the natural world. As a teenager, Kate 
       Harris realized that the career she craved-to be an 
       explorer, equal parts swashbuckler and metaphysician-had 
       gone extinct. From what she could tell of the world from 
       small-town Ontario, the likes of Marco Polo and Magellan 
       had mapped the whole earth; there was nothing left to be 
       discovered. Looking beyond this planet, she decided to 
       become a scientist and go to Mars. In between studying at 
       Oxford and MIT, Harris set off by bicycle down the fabled 
       Silk Road with her childhood friend Mel. Pedaling mile 
       upon mile in some of the remotest places on earth, she 
       realized that an explorer, in any day and age, is the kind
       of person who refuses to live between the lines. Forget 
       charting maps, naming peaks: what she yearned for was the 
       feeling of soaring completely out of bounds. The farther 
       she traveled, the closer she came to a world as wild as 
       she felt within. Lands of Lost Borders is the chronicle of
       Harris's odyssey and an exploration of the importance of 
       breaking the boundaries we set ourselves; an examination 
       of the stories borders tell, and the restrictions they 
       place on nature and humanity; and a meditation on the 
       existential need to explore-the essential longing to 
       discover what in the universe we are doing here. Like 
       Rebecca Solnit and Pico Iyer, Kate Harris offers a travel 
       account at once exuberant and reflective, wry and 
       rapturous. Lands of Lost Borders explores the nature of 
       limits and the wildness of the self that can never fully 
       be mapped. Weaving adventure and philosophy with the 
       history of science and exploration, Lands of Lost Borders 
       celebrates our connection as humans to the natural world, 
       and ultimately to each other-a belonging that transcends 
       any fences or stories that may divide us.
