BOOK GIVEAWAY!

We're Giving Away Ten Author-Signed Copies of Rolling Back the River

Paul Guernsey has a new book out in the world—his fourth novel. The title is Rolling Back the River, published by Stackpole Books, an imprint of Globe Pequot, and in addition to being a literary adventure story, it contains strong elements of magical realism and is mostly set in Argentina, home country of Jorge Luis Borges and Julio Cortázar, two pioneers of the magical realism movement. The protagonist of RBtR is a man from Maine named Vincent Mapp, an expert and passionate fly fisherman who, as he proceeds through his angling adventures on two continents, in addition to viewing himself as having embarked on a quest for a sacred grail in the form of an elusive, and perhaps mythical, salmon, is also powerfully motivated by vivid dreams that serve to warn him and instruct him about where he has gone wrong in his life. Rolling Back the River is Paul Guernsey's fourth novel—all of which, in addition to being adventures are also works of magic realism—and if you'd like to put your name in the magic Goodreads hat for a chance at winning a free book, signed by the author, you can do that here
