Book
Wind on the waves : stories from the Oregon coast / by Kim Stafford.
Wind on the Waves, like a deck of cards, fans out a collection of fifty-two stories that embody the ravishing beauty and quirky mysteries of the ever-wild Oregon coast. In this collection, places speak their mind, and a host of local characters hold forth on the wit and pluck it takes to thrive in the coastal zone. Written by award-winning author and poet Kim Stafford, these vignettes celebrate the people, towns, creatures, cultures, and the tug of what's real along one of America s most rugged and enchanting coastlines. The stories in Wind on the Waves evoke wonder and joy, the rich variety of our human ways, and our ultimate humbling by the power of the sea. This book will make you want to punch through a storm to witness the coast in all its moods, or stay home snug-but be there story by story. Book jacket.
