Written in stone : a novel / by Peter Unwin.

Unwin, Peter, 1956- (author.).

Summary:

"Paul Prescot's desire to catalogue and comprehend the Aboriginal rock paintings of the Canadian Shield is told through the eyes of the woman he loves, and who, for her own reasons, accompanies him on his travels to the deep north. Her journeys with her husband, and then alone, returning to the north shore of Lake Superior to commend his ashes to the water, draw her deeper into a history that, while foreign to them both, seems to offer a meaningful alternative to a world that has gone wrong."-- Provided by publisher.
