He is also a bit lost, twelve years late with his PhD on Russian folktales and increasingly haunted by a sense that he's become a disappointment to his family.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo when his wife Kate accepts a visiting professorship at a prestigious college in the far away forests of Vermont, he decides that this will be the year to finally move forward with his life. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Miles is a man of many enthusiasms, who possesses, in Kate's, words, 'a great capacity to fall in with anyone, anywhere'. Soon he finds himself entangled with a cast of characters as colorful as those of any of his folktales - from a ghostly tree surgeon, to a scythe-mad biochemist, a Shakespearean temptress, and a photographer of snowflakes - until at last he stumbles upon a bizarre local legend, which, he begins to suspect, might not be a legend at all.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mason, Daniel","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":54013152035155,"sku":"9781399835022","price":18.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/mason-daniel-daniel-mason-country-people-2026-9781399835022-1244683106.jpg?v=1781636769","url":"https:\/\/chaptersbookstore.com\/products\/daniel-mason-country-people-2026","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
