Michael Decker 
A Fitting Epitaph [EPUB ebook] 

Ủng hộ

Bill is out of options. Unemployed, alone and returning to the raucous seas of Northern California, the only home he knows, he takes a loan out at the bank and pours his last cent into his final chance for redemption: a tired old boat without a name. Although ‘pitted with rust’ with ‘the cancer of salt corrosion gnawing at the copper engine parts’ Bill purchases the WWII craft, warts and all, hoping he can eventually turn her into a solid charter. After encountering his old friend Ike, an antiquated, blistering sailor with a penchant for cigarettes, whiskey and danger, and Tom, an eager neophyte with the edge to match them both, they concoct a plan to make them whole. Taking their chances on the newly christened Skate, the three unlikely souls embark on a risky expedition into Baja, Mexico to fish for albacore.

Imbued with the tainted soul of Jim Harrison and the artistry of Patrick O’Brien, A Fitting Epitaph is an elegiac, mournful, but powerful and brutal journey into the heart of men whose livelihoods and souls depend on the mysterious moods of the Pacific.

Giới thiệu về tác giả

Mike Decker was born in Moline, Illinois at the beginning of World War II. A Fitting Epitaph is a work of fiction, but it is based on his father-in-law William Davies’ years as a party boat captain and commercial fisherman, and the time Mike spent in the 1960s as a deck hand on Bill’s second boat, ‘The My Three’. Mike currently lives in California in the Sierra Nevada, with his wife Joyce, to whom all his work is dedicated.
