Sinopse
Paddling a canoe into the sunrise on the longest day of the year...watching a child take her first kayak ride with her father...gazing at a bald eagle, riding air currents high above the lake...chuckling as a hummingbird defends his feeder against intruders...dodging campfire smoke while burning marshmallows and telling scary stories to wide-eyed kids. These are some of the moments and memories depicted in Summers at the Lake. The essays—often humorous, sometimes tinged with a sweet melancholy—celebrate the people and events marking the progress of the seasons, from the budding of the first green leaves of May to their falling, gold and scarlet, in September. These prose poems capture the joy of simple, lakeside living and quiet reflection.
Resumo da Crítica
"This gentle book by a gentle man is the kind that grows on you. Reading it will give you the same benefits as meditating in lovely surroundings in peace and calmness." (Bob Rich, author of From Depression to Contentment)
"In Summers at the Lake, much can be learned about life in the U.P. and its enjoyable places. You can explore the wonders of the U.P. while dipping your toes into the everyday experiences of life near Crooked Lake." (Sharon Brunner, U.P. Book Review)
"Jon C. Stott delightfully describes the many joys of lakeside living with the unchanging activities of summer. Deb Le Blanc's photos will make readers feel as if they are right there at the cabin, next to the author." (Carolyn Wilhelm, MA, Midwest Book Review)
