Book Description
From National Book Award in Fiction finalist Andrew Krivak comes a gorgeous fable of Earth’s last two human inhabitants, and a girl’s journey home In an Edenic future, a girl and her father live close to the land in the shadow of a lone mountain. They possess a few remnants of civilization: some books, a pane of glass, a set of flint and steel, a comb. The father teaches the girl how to fish and hunt, the secrets of the seasons and the stars. He is preparing her for an adulthood in harmony with nature, for they are the last of humankind. But when the girl finds herself alone in an unknown landscape, it is a bear that will lead her back home through a vast wilderness that offers the greatest lessons of all, if she can only learn to listen. A cautionary tale of human fragility, of love and loss, The Bear is a stunning tribute to the beauty of nature’s dominion. Andrew Krivak is the author of two previous novels: The Signal Flame, a Chautauqua Prize finalist, and The Sojourn, a National Book Award finalist and winner of both the Chautauqua Prize and Dayton Literary Peace Prize. He lives with his wife and three children in Somerville, Massachusetts, and Jaffrey, New Hampshire, in the shadow of Mount Monadnock, which inspired much of the landscape in The Bear.

"That's a grey bear, right?" Teagan asked. "I mean . . . look at that silvery fur! And look at that shot! Pow! Right in his eye! A carbine do that?" He stopped, blinked, then stared at the dead bear. "Father's gonna be real mad. Not at us, though. Right? Right, Liz? Not at us?" "Right, Tee." Liz nodded, pushing her braid over her shoulder. The hounds' barking went louder. Liz looked around Teagan, past the pack - and saw something move, something small and grey beside the bear's corpse. Her eyes widened. Teagan had been right about Father being mad. And he'd been right about the killing shot. But he was wrong about something else. The giant, dead bear wasn't a "he." It was a "she." And it had been a mother.
