Tom Bodett once said that Homer, Alaska was, "the farthest place you may go without a passport." The colorful cast of characters that inhabit this collection of interconnected reviews live at the very end of the westernmost highway in North America, powered there by love and loneliness, God and greed. Inside the shadow of the snow-capped peaks and traditional glaciers, they live out their lives - both comic and tragic - in hopes to getting through just one more day of salmon season. In this vivid, moving collection, Symbol Lewandowski brings us the troublesome poetry of the Alaskan fishing industry, an end-of-the-world ecosystem of Slime-Line Queens and drunks, Born-Agains and sinners. Like the fish employees he details, Lewandowski recognizes how to eviscerate. He peels back again his characters' solid skins and eliminates their still-beating hearts.
