John Benditt will read from "The Boatmaker," his debut novel from Tin House.
"John Benditt’s The Boatmaker is made of primal stuff: stone and sea, blood and snow, dreams of wolves and men like bears. This is a novel that will anchor you firmly to the earth, close enough to the pulse of the world that you might hear its drumbeat echo on every page."- Matt Bell, author of "In the House upon the Dirt between the Lake and the Woods"
"The Boatmaker is a wonderful novel–wonderful as in spectacularly good and wonderful as in full of wonders. There are echoes of our own time and of older times; it is set in a very intelligently imagined country, a mirror of our Western world and its evils and virtues rather than a fantasy land." - John Casey, author of the National Book Award-winning "Spartina"
