Caught between his silent, part-Blackfoot father and his vivacious but trapped mother, Plante flees this small world, losing his belief in any god and finding the center of his life in love and in writing. Still, the ghosts of his past haunt Plante and drive him to embark on a stunning spiritual and physical journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003eDavid Plante is the author of more than a dozen novels, including the Francoeur trilogy-\u003ci\u003eThe Family, The Woods,\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Country\u003c\/i\u003e-as well as a work of nonfiction, \u003ci\u003eDifficult Women: A Memoir of Three\u003c\/i\u003e.
