Evans' stories are skilled, wry, and sometimes bitterly ironic glimpses into the lives of people who change, and are changed by, the rugged weather, geography, and social life of the coastal Pacific Northwest. Evan's original self-published collection \u003cem\u003eNorthport: Stories of the Coast\u003c\/em\u003e was a finalist for a 1999 Oregon Book Award, but the book fell out of print not long afterward. Restored and reissued here, with a cover featuring photos by Evans and an introduction by Oregon writer Dan DeWeese, \u003cem\u003eThe Northport Stories\u003c\/em\u003e now not only showcases the desires and frustrations of its varied characters, but also captures a late-twentieth-century way of life in which solitude and freedom were valued as much as connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 218\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 01, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51760932651296,"sku":"9781955593014","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/354152a63d6403f184b04d3cf132943c.webp?v=1780194572","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-northport-stories-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
