Doyle wraps his readers in ribbon and totes them along on a journey to reveal the queer gifts of life—though don’t expect any neatly tied bows. His prose is definitive, captivating , and cutting and his narrative is quixotic—unbounded by reality but unfailingly real. Doyle is an architect of small worlds with a saucer-sized eye for detail. Mink River winds through the lives of a small town on the Oregon Coast, with strange and compelling characters, inhabiting a world sufficiently rich to enliven your own long after you put this book down. Paperback, 319 pages, Oregon State University Press, 9" x 6". Show more
