Acclaimed writer Peter Kaminsky turns an angler’s lifelong passion into a poetic philosophy on living well. Drawing on years beside trout streams and salt water flats, he offers a series of captivating reflections on what fly fishing teaches us about love, work, humility, patience, success, failure and the simple joys of being alive. From the sparkle of sunlight on water to long quiet days without a bite, Kaminsky shows how the lessons of the river apply far beyond the banks – how enduring long waits teaches resilience, how catch-and-release becomes a lesson in ethics, and how serene moments on the water can ground us in our deepest values. Perfect for anglers and dreamers alike, this beautifully written, philosophical gem makes the ordinary extraordinary and reminds us that sometimes the meaning of life is found in the cast of a line and the rhythm of the river. Very good condition. Hardcover, 18cm x 13cm, 144 pages.
