Deviate

CHAPTER

Travelling With Your Parents

The author talks about the idea of returning to places you visited as a young person, and then travelling back to it over the course of time. She also discusses how she tried to emulate her father's conversationalist style in order to be more like him. The book is full of stories that are "returned" or have been revisited by people they've never met before. It was published last year but has just had its first anniversary this month.
