The Lord God Bird [first edition]

“Flies through the imagination with a clear, unapologetic masculinity and lands with great tenderness in the human heart.”―Kent Stetson A humble widower alone in his canoe in Big Woods, Arkansas, spots, for a fleeting moment, the long-thought extinct ivory-billed woodpecker. How the man (and the bird) deal with the discovery and the lives it changes are told in this deeply felt novel.
