Returning home to America after a youth spent in U.S. occupied Japan, college -bound Meredith Woods felt adrift. She brought with her the experience of a country torn by war, a fierce mathematical intellect, binding family loyalty, and a yearning for deeper connection. Over seventy years later, her stories transport readers to a time in history when a life could change from a message heard over short-wave radio; a time when a woman would break society’s expectations by founding a college computer science department. Potter’s memoir digs deep into a search for belonging, a thirst for meaning and the underlying desire to find the place where she fit. Each memory captures a life full of appreciation, heart, and the sparkle of wisdom, humor, and joy that only experience, reflection, and long life can bring.
