More Description"What follows is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. However, I did change names, dates, facts, and major details a little, and any resemblance to anyone now living or dead is coincidental."The author of TALES FROM HOMER takes us on a year-long odyssey to a remote region of Alaska, where he chronicles his experiences as a "gussick" among the Eskimos. Stories range from hilarious misadventures (getting stuck in tundra mud, losing a friend off the back of a snowmobile, eating frozen raw eggs) to the mysterious (exploring a ghost ship, seeking a Shaman, hunting "little people") to serious reflections (a young girl's funeral, a priest's doubts, the neglect of a child). WILSON BAY is a comical, heartfelt, and unflinching portrait of life in rural Alaska - one where the line of fact and fiction is often blurred.
