Nova, Craig – BROOK TROUT AND THE WRITING LIFE – 1991 1st ed. – Lyons, NY - 111p – This book is a brief and brilliant autobiography in which the worlds of the fisherman and the novelist commingle. From the first brookie the author catches to the most recent, this book is a paean to the beauty of the brook trout and their place in his life. The brookie is a constant. As Nova fishes for them in Maine, New York and Vermont, they become a graceful embodiment of the important moments of his life. Part autobiography and part fishing literature, imbued with a sense of the delight and mystery of moving water and wild brookies, this is a gem of a book. – very fine in very fine dust jacket. - $25.00
