Brook Trout and the Writing Life
Joy, fear, love, children, fishing, friends, a woman who is a partner, a house in the country, and, of course, the constant writing of books are some of the elements of this wonderful life. Author Craig Nova started Brook Trout and the Writing Life as a letter to his children, but it soon became a credo, a belief in the way an American novelist can live in the modern age. The central question, answered here in a series of stories, is how one family, facing difficulty, both personal and literary, can live with pleasure, satisfaction, and the right amount of humility. In Brook Trout and the Writing Life the personal and the literary are often inextricably intertwined. It is a drama of what goes on just beyond the surface of the writing life.
