Description
The River Why is a thought-provoking novel about self-discovery and our connection to nature. Written in a unique and powerful voice, it follows the journey of a young man as he leaves behind his family to find his own path. His quest for self-knowledge takes him to a remote cabin, where he sets out to catch the elusive steelhead in the Pacific Northwest.
As he navigates the challenges of the natural world, Gus's experiences also have a profound impact on his understanding of himself and his place in the world. This beautifully written book is a humorous and thought-provoking exploration of the human condition.
With its expertly crafted narrative, The River Why is a compelling read that will leave you changed by the end. A new Afterword by the author adds depth and insight to this already powerful story.
