Across the Border: Stories

By Anthony Pond

Sailing on the Nile, climbing the slopes of Kilimanjaro, tracking gorillas in the jungles of Rwanda; Ryan Jordan is searching for one thing - himself.

As a boy, Ryan experienced his first encounter with death in the family's horse corral - and his father's role in it.

Later, a greater tragedy occurs - again in the corral.

Questions about his own purpose in life hound him, sending Ryan into the wild terrain of Baja California with two college buddies in the mid-1970s.

With time, plans change. Once again he crosses the border to the warm waters of the Sea of Cortez to find love.

Several years later, he suffers another loss. Restless, and seeking to forget, he ventures to Africa on a journey of personal exploration.

This collection of fifteen interconnected stories follows Ryan as he searches for meaning in life, across various borders, both international and emotional.
