A poignant ecological novel that follows the harrowing journey of the last known male Eskimo curlew as he migrates across the Americas in search of a mate. Once part of vast flocks that darkened the skies, the curlew now flies alone, driven by instinct and hope. Through lyrical prose and vivid natural detail, Bodsworth crafts a haunting meditation on extinction, survival, and the quiet tragedy of a vanishing species. The novel is both a love letter to the natural world and a stark warning about humanitys impact on it.
