Medicine walk / Richard Wagamese.
Summary:
-- Indian Horse What ensues is a journey through the rugged and beautiful backcountry, and a journey into the past, as the two men push forward to Eldon's end. From a poverty-stricken childhood, to the Korean War, and later the derelict houses of mill towns, Eldon relates both the desolate moments of his life and a time of redemption and love and in doing so offers Frank a history he has never known, the father he has never had, and a connection to himself he never expected. A novel about love, friendship, courage, and the idea that the land has within it powers of healing, Medicine Walk Wagamese's writing soars and his insight and compassion are matched by his gift of communicating these to the reader. From the Hardcover edition.
