Book Description
======
Alaska, 1974.
Unpredictable. Unforgiving. Untamed.
For a family in crisis, the ultimate test of survival.
Ernt Allbright, a former POW, comes home from the Vietnam war a changed
and volatile man. When he loses yet another job, he makes an impulsive
decision: he will move his family north, to Alaska, where they will
live off the grid in AmericaÆs last true frontier.
Thirteen-year-old Leni, a girl coming of age in a tumultuous time, caught
in the riptide of her parentsÆ passionate, stormy relationship, dares
to hope that a new land will lead to a better future for her family.
She is desperate for a place to belong. Her mother, Cora, will do anything
and go anywhere for the man she loves, even if it means following him
into the unknown
At first, Alaska seems to be the answer to their prayers. In a wild,
remote corner of the state, they find a fiercely independent community
of strong men and even stronger women. The long, sunlit days and the
generosity of the locals make up for the AllbrightsÆ lack of preparation
and dwindling resources.
But as winter approaches and darkness descends on Alaska, ErntÆs fragile
mental state deteriorates and the family begins to fracture. Soon the
perils outside pale in comparison to threats from within. In their small
cabin, covered in snow, blanketed in eighteen hours of night, Leni and
her mother learn the terrible truth: they are on their own. In the wild,
there is no one to save them but themselves.
In this unforgettable portrait of human frailty and resilience, Kristin
Hannah reveals the indomitable character of the modern American pioneer
and the spirit of a vanishing Alaska?a place of incomparable beauty
and danger. The Great Alone is a daring, beautiful, stay-up-all-night
story about love and loss, the fight for survival, and the wildness
that lives in both man and nature.
