About This Item
Scribner Book Company, 2006. First edition. Hard cover. Very Good/Very Good. The second installment of Howell Raines' autobiography which follows his account of surviving his midlife crisis, as recounted in Fly Fishing Through the Midlife Crisis. Raines abandons his position on The New York Times to be confronted by world-weary ennui. He realises - through the expensively Hemingwayesque catharsis of marlin fishing in the South Pacific - that actually he already has everything he wants. He just hadn't noticed. Amusing, self-deprecating introspection with lots of fishing and a professionally assembled structure which develops against the current affairs of the day. Tarpon, marlin, brown trout and others, Christmas Island, Lake Como, North America, Patagonia and elsewhere.
