Novel of human tensions developing against the strong background of forest, river, and animal life,author combines here his insights into the human heart & his love of the natural world of which we are part, cryptic and serene, but violent at the rapids.In the summer of 1962, John Hyde, an American landscape architect, and his wife Moira return to Hyde's fishing camp on the Mallabec River in New Brunswick for the first time in 20 years. Nearby live a young couple named Talbot: Kate Talbot's parents had been neighbors and friends of the Hyde's on this same river in 1939 .When young Robin Hyde joins his parents, we know all but one one of the principled characters of David Walker's tense novel.
Through a skillful flashback to that earlier time at the river, we discover the dark events in the background which persist through the new generations of these two families. In subtle counterpoint, tragedy is re-enacted and the earlier evil remorselessly demands its price.- Mallabec Hardcover-David Walker-second printing –copyright 1965 David Walker– pub – Houghton Mifflin Company– Boston –the Riverside press Cambridge 245 pages–dust jacket missing – B009OWO0LA -later published in 1974– LAXVespa Los Angeles /Culver City--see pictures maybe this will do it maybe it won't. you'll know by looking at the pictures -Expedited Shipping available-by request/ price adjust-..Ruth Reaser..LAX Vespa shipped -United States Post to fulfill your order, Los Angeles I carefully pack your book,hop on my Vespa visit the PO to have it placed in our mail system.. your books wrapped,not co-mingled,you get the copy you were viewing.
