Marathon racer dirtied with blood and sap and locals such as the beachcombing Lightseeker playing with parallelogram prisms and studying the sun through a shoebox. Ulman's style is unique with skillfully crafted language - both poetic and lyrical, creating a quirky and recognizable small-town Alaskan community. -Vivian Faith Prescott, author of The Dead Go to Seattle With a playful, acrobatic use of language, Sean Ulman shines an intimate spotlight into every corner of this small harbor town, where the elements of weather--from sustained winds to perpetual rain to the much sought after sun - hold starring roles in the lives of the eclectic community of folks that visit or call Seward home. -Christy Everett, author of the blog Following Elias
