Set mostly in famed Big Sky Country, McGuane brings us an \"astonishing\" (\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e) collection in which place exerts the power of destiny.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A boy makes a surprising discovery skating at night on Lake Michigan; an Irish clan in Massachusetts gather around their dying matriarch; a battered survivor of the glory days of Key West washes up on other shores. Several of the stories unfold in Big Sky country: a father tries to buy his adult son's way out of virginity; a convict turns cowhand on a ranch; a couple makes a fateful drive through a perilous gorge. McGuane's people are seekers, beguiled by the land's beauty and myth, compelled by the fantasy of what a locale can offer, forced to reconcile dream and truth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/12\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781400075188\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.10w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/08\/2007 pg. 24\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMen's Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2010 pg. 125\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Thomas McGuane","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42917121294517,"sku":"9781400075188","price":16.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_d68ec534-ef37-4441-b2d1-6ce3bed21fe6.jpg?v=1687278068","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/gallatin-canyon-stories-9781400075188","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
