After he was handed an old brokendown bamboo fly rod, Frank Soos waited several years before he cautiously undertook its restoration. That painstaking enterprise becomes the central metaphor and the unifying theme for the captivating personal essays presented here.With sly wit and disarming candor, Soos recounts flyfishing adventures that become points of departure for wideranging ruminations on the larger questions that haunt him. Coming to terms with his new rod in On Wanting Everything, Soos casts a skeptical eye on the engines of consumerism and muses on the paradox of how a fishing rod that becomes too valuable ceases to be useful. The Age of Imperfection begins as a rueful account of his botched repair work but soon changes into an insightful reflection on the seductiveness of perfection and finishes as an homage to the creative power that comes from mistakes. In Useful Tools Soos takes a decidedly pessimistic look at the ageold quest to combine the good with the beautiful and concludes with an eloquent appreciation of a good tool put to an unintended use. On His Slowness offers fresh new perceptions about the human costs of the everaccelerating pace of contemporary life and the increasingly hard work of resisting it. More than a meditation on suicide, Obituary with Bamboo Fly Rod engages the issue of individual human responsibility and the ultimate question of How to be with equal parts humility and wonder.This elegant volume is handsomely illustrated with the fullcolor paintings of Alaskan artist Kesler Woodward. Rich in wisdom and physical appeal, Bamboo Fly Rod Suite is a distinctive and rewarding book with wideranging appeal.
