Summary
In True North, master storyteller Jim Harrison delves deep into the soul of America's rugged Midwest, weaving a haunting tale of legacy, redemption, and environmental reckoning. The novel follows David Burkett, heir to a powerful timber family whose wealth was built on ruthless deforestation. Wrestling with guilt, David embarks on a solitary, introspective journey to confront the sins of his ancestors and uncover a deeper moral compass in a world that has lost its bearings. Set against the stark and beautiful backdrop of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Harrison’s prose is poetic, raw, and profoundly human. The novel offers both a coming-of-age narrative and a philosophical exploration of nature, family, and the pursuit of truth. This first edition hardcover, protected in a Brodart archival cover, is perfect for collectors and fans of literary fiction steeped in environmental and spiritual themes.
