At the foot of the Elwha River, the muddy outpost of Port Bonita is
about to boom, fueled by a ragtag band of dizzyingly disparate men
and women unified only in their visions of a more prosperous
future. A failed accountant by the name of Ethan Thornburgh has
just arrived in Port Bonita to reclaim the woman he loves and start
a family. Ethan s obsession with a brighter future impels the
damming of the mighty Elwha to harness its power and put Port
Bonita on the map.
More than a century later, his great-great grandson, a middle
manager at a failing fish- packing plant, is destined to oversee
the undoing of that vision, as the great Thornburgh dam is marked
for demolition, having blocked the very lifeline that could have
sustained the town. "West of Here" is a grand and playful odyssey,
a multilayered saga of destiny and greed, adventure and passion,
that chronicles the life of one small town, turning America s
history into myth, and myth into a nation s shared experience."
