Product Info Reviews

Description:

He wanted to finally "do falconry right." Writer Dan O'Brien had a chance, with his physician wife leaving their South Dakota ranch on a year-long fellowship, to devote himself to training hunting falcons. O'Brien writes passionately about living close to nature, and provides a detailed and fascinating look at a very unusual avocation. Considering himself a hunter, O'Brien expresses outrage that he is "grouped with [National Rifle Association] cretins who use hunting season as an opportunity to prove something about their manhood." Equinox is a lyrical tale about the revelations of life, a story we haven't heard before told in crystalline prose.
