After nearly fifty years in Iowa, France, Vermont and New York City, and deep into the global pandemic, Joanne Jacobson returned to the Midwest where she'd grown up-and to writing about home. In the Photic Zone borrows from oceanography the model of the \"photic zone\" the top layer of bodies of water, where photosynthesis-the generation of life from light-takes place. In these essays, Jacobson recovers the different forms that \"home\" has taken for her-family, geography, the body-and probes the emotional life that goes on beneath what's visible on the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eJacobson, Joanne:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - After nearly fifty years in Vermont and New York City, Joanne Jacobson has returned to the Midwest where she grew up-and to writing about home.
