"Men will think this journey about sex with women and women will think that it is about sex with men, but the question leaps at us: What is the destination? We seek much in our destinations but find more, perhaps, in our journeys." In the early hours of a spring morning, a groggy college graduate lies alongside the Monongahela River, across a set of train tracks. He awakes to questions and pain and a whirlwind of dreams even more bitter than concrete realities. But there in the dim, cold confusion, he begins a journey-a journey that reconciles the turbulent relationship between mind and body...and reinvigorates both with an open acceptance of human love. A gracefully poetic novel, Huntress follows the protagonist Andrew-a young man struggling to understand some heavy emotional and philosophical questions-as he travels from an urban university campus, to a tranquil farmhouse in Virginia, and on to Russia, where he spends a year teaching English to young students. In this new environment, he slowly begins to form new friendships with his fellow teachers and comes to terms with the facts and failures that have so long afflicted his mind and body. Full of rich symbolism and the kind of personal struggle that unites all people, Huntress encourages its readers to find themselves somewhere along this nebulous path of year-in-the-life experiences. And they may just find peace.
