Blood Knots (2010)
Luke Jennings
"Blood Knots is one those books so surprising in its depth, its effect, its power as to leave a reader with a sense of an inability to convey just how intense and wonderful it is. But make no mistake. This is a book written from the heart, that acknowledges the mysteries in fishing, which, as the author so gracefully manages to suggest, is a stand in and an expression for many other of the most powerful parts of being human. And, on top of everything else, it is so keenly written as to make the beauty of the English language seem new."
