Gifted: A Novel

“A remarkable story.” ―The New York Times Book Review Set in the mid-1990s, when environmentalists and timber communities warred over the future of the last Northwestern old-growth forests, Gifted is the story of a young man with a metaphysical imagination―naïve yet wise, gifted yet ordinary―who comes of age under harsh circumstances, negotiating the wildness of his home country, of his human relationships, and of the emerging complexities of his own being.
