of his long and prolific career, including the healing power of nature and the deep
connection between the sensual and the spiritual.Harrison displays a seemingly
effortless ability to present abstract issues in earthy, muscular prose."Booklist

shortcomings and delve into their grief with keen sympathy."Publishers Weekly

In this sequel to Harrison's True North, Donald Burkett, a middle-aged
Chippewa-Finnish man, is dying of Lou Gehrig's disease. While his wife, Cynthia,
transcribes, Donald begins dictating his family history for the benefit of their children,
stories that he never before has shared. As old crimes, dreams, wounds, and sacred
moments are revived for the members of Donald's family, each is affected in different
and profound ways. Each will describe in his or her own voice the inner journey
catalyzed by Donald's death and legacy.

This is a deeply moving book about origins and endings, about honoring life, honoring
the dead, and finding redemption in unlikely places.
