FreeMost outdoor enthusiasts understand the phrase “turn around time” as that point in an adventure when you must cease heading out in order to have enough time to safely return to camp or home. For novelist David Guterson, it is also a metaphor for where we find ourselves in the middle of our lives, and his new narrative poem, Turn Around Time (Mountaineers), explores this idea through a lyrical journey along a trail, much like those in Washington’s mountain ranges he hiked while growing up.
