Sex, Death, and Fly-Fishing

From the irrepressible author of Trout Bum and The View from Rat Lake comes an engaging, humorous, often profound examination of life’s greatest mysteries: sex, death, and fly-fishing.John Gierach’s quest takes us from his quiet home water (an ordinary, run-of-the-mill trout stream where fly-fishing can be a casual affair) to Utah’s famous Green River, and to unknown creeks throughout the Western states and Canada. We’re introduced to a lively group of fishing buddies, some local “experts” and even an ex-girlfriend, along the way. Contemplative, evocative, and wry, he shares insights on mayflies and men, fishing and sport, life and love, and the meaning (or meaninglessness) of it all.
