Healing the Fisher King - A Fly Fisher's Grail Quest (Paperback)

In the tradition of A River Runs Through It, the book Healing the Fisher King: A Fly Fisher's Quest is the story of one man's fly fishing quest to the familiar waters of his childhood -- to the South Texas, primitive coastal estuary known as the Lower Laguna Madre. Lured by a desire to catch a giant speckled trout -- but directed by a luminous dream that points to the Laguna Madre as the setting for healing and transformation -- Sparrow takes his boat and his eight-year-old son on a journey from Virginia to South Texas that proves more difficult and more meaningful than he imagines. As Sparrow begins his search for the fish so aptly named named cynoscion nebulosus, or "starry nebulae," his experiences soon reveal the deeper dimensions of the quest, in which the search for a great fish mirrors his lifelong yearning for wholeness. He is led throughout by radiant dreams, his knowledge of spiritual traditions, and a willingness to face his own past with ruthless honesty.
