The Boy from Gorge River
Holly says: "From memoirs like Tara Westover's Educated to fiction like Jonathan Evison’s Legends of the North Cascades, I’m always compelled by stories of isolation and survival. Chris Long's memoir is about his experience of growing up two days’ hike from the nearest road, on the west coast of the wild and rugged South Island. Born to parents committed to living a life away from capitalism and connected to the natural world, Chris shares his journey from a wild childhood to becoming a teenager wondering about the rest of the world, and finding his way as an adult chasing adventure while staying true to his roots."
