Summary:
Part detective novel, part psychological thriller, 'Surfacing' is the story of a young woman who returns to northern Quebec, to the remote island of her childhood, with her lover and two friends, to investigate the mysterious disappearance of her father. Flooded with memories, she begins to realize that going home means entering not only another place, but another time. As the wild island exerts its elemental hold and she is submerged in the language of the wilderness, she discovers that what she is really searching for is her own past. Permeated with an aura of suspense, complex with layered meanings, and written in brilliant, diamond-sharp prose, 'Surfacing' has grown in reputation as a novel unique in modern literature for its mythic exploration of one woman's spiritual pilgrimage.
