Canton author George Ivey will read from and sign his book, Up River: A Novel of Attempted Restoration. Up River explores themes of loss, recovery, and renewal through protagonist Peter Bailey's struggle to save the endangered Akwanee River.
"Up River shows what it is like to go against the stream in a good cause. George Ivey gives us a fascinating story, filled with folks friendly and threatening, cheery and cranky. The subjects this fast-paced novel addresses are as important as they are plentiful. Everyone who has ever been a stranger in a new place will sympathize with Peter Bailey; everyone who has tried to beat long odds will cheer for him. And anyone who reads Up River will learn how perilous is the balance of nature—and human nature. Entrancing." -Fred Chappell |
