( ) I really enjoyed this book, and this sort of novel isn't usually my thing. I thought the characters were quirky and engaging, almost Dickensian. The story took enough odd detours that kept the pages turning. I also found the detail about that period, farm life, sea life, and the conditions in Nome, Alaska compelling and vivid. Definitely recommended. Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

The year is 1900 in gold-prospecting Alaska. Essie, a Midwestern farm girl fleeing from a stormy marriage, joins up with prospectors bound for Nome, where the golden sands teem with dreamers, schemers, and high rollers. When Leonard, Essie's stubborn and volatile husband, travels north, astonishing scenes of pursuit, sacrifice, and crucial decision rise to a conclusion that is both surprising and inevitable. Powerfully evoking a past world and the variable territory of the heart, this novel establishes Peter C. Brown as a consummate storyteller. Reading group guide included.
