No Man’s Land is equal parts survival story, midlife reckoning, and lush nature writing. Perfect for readers who seek memoirs written by women about women, and who are eager for more books like Cheryl Strayed’s Wild.

At forty-five, Becky Jensen was raising two sons, engaged to be married, living the dream in Colorado. She was also suicidal and had no idea why. What did she have to be depressed about?

The question haunted Becky, leading her to take a bold step: to hike the five-hundred-mile Colorado Trail in search of answers. Leaving everything and everyone behind, she shouldered a backpack loaded with camping gear, her father’s ashes, and the inherited burdens of womanhood—trudging off alone into no man’s land.
