An international bestseller that put Newfoundland on the world stage, this lyrical novel conjures the tough life of a recently divorced journalist struggling to get through the day in a remote fishing town. Populated by wonderfully eccentric characters, it is the tale of a prodigal son returned home, vivid in its description of the place. You won't be able to put it down.  (NFL03, $16.00)
