novel by Ann Harleman

of Gort Hutchins, an ethereal presence on whom his family nonetheless

to him but of why he holds an almost mystical grip on the hearts of those
who love him.... Harleman trawls deep, treasure-filled waters in Bitter
Lake. -- Boston Globe
Thick with family secrets and sadnessess...verbal razzle-dazzle... mystery... Harleman is a dexterous writer. -- New York Times
