Surviving the Island of Grace: A Memoir of Alaska Book

Twenty-three fishing seasons ago, Leslie Fields left her complacent life on the East Coast and traveled to the raw wilderness of Alaska. With a sparkling prose reminiscent of a Kathleen Norris or Gretel Ehrlich, Fields details her journeys in the exhausting and often brutal world of commercial salmon fishing.With an unflinching and insightful gaze, Fields explores not only the landscape and seascape of her new terrain, but the personal changes wrought by her decision to change her life: the painful transition from young woman to wife, fisherman, and mother, and, intriguingly, a new perspective on her unique childhood. A forceful combination of both the dramatic Alaska setting and the details of her own life, Surviving the Island of Grace is a poetic and powerful memoir.Read More
