Summary
Winner of the Pacific Northwest Book Association No. 1 Fiction Book Award for 1995, The Sky Fisherman is the poignant story of a young man coming of age in a small Oregon town. Laced with love of the great outdoors and infused with colorful local characters, this audiobook is a rich glimpse at life in the Pacific Northwest. The lives of young Culver, his twice-married mother, and his charismatic Uncle Jake are shadowed by the death of Culver's father in a fishing accident. When a suspicious fire destroys the town mill and three murders occur, Culver and his family must fight to escape the dangers swirling around them. Vigorous and compassionate, The Sky Fisherman announces the dawning of an important new voice in American fiction. Ed Sala's skillful narration enlivens this complex mix of Native American spiritual beliefs, the absolute laws of nature, and quest for life's meaning into an unforgettable piece of Americana
