The Desert Angler

The Desert Angler is an ambitious effort. This simple but crafty narrative pays homage to one of the greatest fish stories of all time, Jonah and the Whale. The novel tells a compelling story of forbidden love and tragic loss. Through his endearing characters Capricious Harmony and Karl Hoogeveen, the author weaves their bittersweet tale with the rise and fall of Rancho Opulente, a Phoenix suburb. Utilizing his eloquent prose and unique perspective, Nikolai Gorski succeeds in bringing to the reader's imagination a colorful romantic story that emerges from the dusty brown Arizona desert.
