Originally published in 1954, Last of the Curlews is a haunting fictionalized account of the final days of the Eskimo curlew a once-abundant shorebird driven to near extinction by overhunting. The novel follows a lone male curlew on his perilous migration from the Canadian Arctic to South America and back, driven by instinct and the fading hope of finding a mate. Through lyrical prose and vivid naturalist detail, Bodsworth crafts a quiet but powerful meditation on loss, survival, and the fragility of the natural world.
