Product Description Cape Cod commercial fisherman Ollie Cahoon finds himself struggling against the competition by largescale fisheries and the loss of his partner at sea, and the disintegreation of his marriage and financial downfall on land. Review " Michelsen's characters are vivid and downtoearth; his prose is both potent and elegant; and his novel, grappling as it does with the issues of addiction, selfdestructive anger, overdevelopment and ecological destruction, and the smothering of small businesses by large corporations, is a multilayered story of destruction and rebirth that fuses the personal and the political."
