On a small island in a glacier-fed lake on Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula, Gary and Irene’s marriage is unraveling. Alone now that the children are grown, Gary, driven by 30 years of diverted plans, is determined to build from scratch the cabin he has always wanted, believing it will recapture what once drew him to Alaska. Irene knows better. She suspects that the cabin is Gary’s first step to leaving her.

Unexpectedly Depressing
Revisado: 03-05-18
I thought it would be nice to listen to a book about the beautiful state I’ve been living in the last 7 years. I had no idea the entire family in this book was going to be so miserable! I kept waiting for something happy to happen to at least one of them & it didn’t. I don’t read/listen to books like this & it was just so sad! The descriptions of the Alaskan landscape & the harshness of what it can sometimes be like to live up here were wonderful & accurate. The narrator was also great. But, if I listened to this before coming to Alaska I would think twice about visiting. That in itself is sad, because it’s awesome up here! This book is definitely not the feel good book of the year!
