1 post | 6 read | 4 to read
“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.”

I am an Alaskan tribe member, I grew up hearing stories of these things. This is a brilliant novel of the what-if-these-things-were-real-and-still-around variety. Demonstrates an impressive understanding of the subtext and function of the myths used to build his modern supernatural thriller. His descriptions of the interactions with the people and environs of Alaska are spot on. Scared the shit out of me and made me homesick. I love this book.

Krisjericho Damn book. Still freaks me out. 5y
