Description

The Wooden Nickel is a boat. Its owner, Lucky Lunt, is an endangered species: a third-generation lobsterman who works the same Maine waters as his father and grandfather. But the world is changing faster than Lucky can fathom - even his heart is failing him - and soon he is embroiled in a turf war that forces him to abandon all the rules of the sea. Capturing all the comedy and pathos of Lucky's epic battle for survival, this remarkable novel announces the arrival of a startling mature and important new voice in fiction.
