WHERE THE DEER AND THE ANTELOPE PLAY The Pastoral Observations of One Ignorant American Who Loves to Walk Outside

by | Read by Nick Offerman

Contemporary Culture • 11.75 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2021

Actor, humorist, woodworker, and writer Nick Offerman narrates his wandering and insightful travelogue with self-effacing wit and engaging style. His performance shows his abilities to be dramatic and ironic, yet he keeps a firm hold on pace and delivery. His storyteller's voice is just right for an audiobook focused on hiking, running, walking, and road-tripping during the pandemic in an enormous Airstream. He begins with a trip to Glacier National Park with his pals George Saunders, the novelist, and Jeff Tweedy, the front man for the band Wilco. He spends time and energy on a sustainable, historic sheep farm in England and finally details a road trip with his wife, the talented Megan Mullally, who sings a lovely version of "Home on the Range" at the audiobook's conclusion.
