Burnside, located in Newfoundlands rugged northeast, seemed like a good place to heal. The coastal village was home to just fifty year-round residents, and accessible only by a hundred-mile ferry crossing. Finch was drawn in by the landscape of low ridges and archipelagos of rocky islands, but he returned to Burnside for its strong sense of community, and the possibility that it might provide a new pattern for his ow life.</p><p>Eventually Finch became a summer resident, buying a house, playing organ for the church, and fishing the areas waters. Offering a portrait of the Newfoundland character and culture, <em>Summers in Squid Tickle</em> explores how three generations of the village have grappled with the changes of the past centuryfrom the rise and collapse of commercial cod fishing, and the migration of young people away from the outport, to the distant hope for tourism and new industries to sustain a disappearing way of life. With characteristically elegant prose and deep sensitivity, Finch introduces us to Squid Tickles inhabitantsa collection of hardy fishermen, vigorous retirees, and close neighbors, as well as the woman who would become his wife.</p><p>Even as the fish in Squid Tickles waters vanish, Finch sketches the enduring relationship of a village with the seafor food, work, leisure, and a rich community lifein the midst of an unforgiving but stunning landscape. <em>Summers in Squid Tickle</em> speaks to the desire we all have in our era to seek quiet, and to reevaluate our connection to each other and the natural world.</p>...7059041Summers in Squid Tickle: A Newfoundland Odyssey397551https://www.gandhi.com.mx/summers-in-squid-tickle--a-newfoundland-odyssey-9781324051329/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7023404/image.jpg?v=638841930055500000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20259781324051329_W3siaWQiOiIxNzI1MTcxZS1lYjE1LTRmZjUtYTBiZS02MzI3NGIyMDRhMzEiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjU4NCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjE2Mywic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjo0MjEsImluY2x1ZGVzVGF4Ijp0cnVlLCJwcmljZVR5cGUiOiJXaG9sZXNhbGUiLCJjdXJyZW5jeSI6Ik1YTiIsImZyb20iOiIyMDI1LTA2LTE3VDAwOjAwOjAwWiIsInRvIjoiMjAyNS0wNi0zMFQyMzo1OTo1OVoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlfSx7ImlkIjoiYjAwNzBiNDktYTI5Yi00YzkzLWEyZjQtZWFiN2JhMmMzOTZlIiwibGlzdFByaWNlIjo1NTEsImRpc2NvdW50IjoxNTQsInNlbGxpbmdQcmljZSI6Mzk3LCJpbmNsdWRlc1RheCI6dHJ1ZSwicHJpY2VUeXBlIjoiV2hvbGVzYWxlIiwiY3VycmVuY3kiOiJNWE4iLCJmcm9tIjoiMjAyNS0wNy0wMVQwMDowMDowMFoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlfV0=9781324051329_<p><strong>An acclaimed nature writers moving recollection of his two decades as a summer resident of a Newfoundland fishing village, originally known as Squid Tickle.</strong></p><p>Robert Finch arrived in Newfoundland in the summer of 1995 heartsick, directionless, his old life on Cape Cod in tatters.
