Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"Deeply moving, superbly crafted, and highly unconventional." --Washington Times
Raven Stole the Moon is the stunning first novel from Garth Stein, author of the phenomenal New York Times bestseller The Art of Racing in the Rain.
A profoundly poignant and unforgettable story of a grieving mother's return to a remote Alaskan town to make peace with the loss of her young son, Raven Stole the Moon combines intense emotion with Native American mysticism and a timeless and terrifying mystery, and earned raves for a young writer and his uniquely captivating imagination.
According to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, this remarkable novel "serves notice that Stein is a rare talent."
