Treading Water

BY ANNE DEGRACE

Brief Description:
The voices of the residents of Bear Creek surface in Treading Water, a wonderful new novel: Gus Sanders, a young trapper, arrives to seek his fortune in 1904, but loses his heart and then his life; in 1911, Jake Shroeder must choose between his desire to join up and his Mennonite roots; and pregnant Dutch war bride Aliesje Milner waits at the train station for a husband whose face she can no longer remember. The personalities of the residents thread throughout the novel from its beginnings until the day the waters rise.
