Product Information
NATIONAL BESTSELLER Named a Best Book of 2021 by Newsweek , the San Francisco Chronicle , The Washington Post , and the Los Angeles Times "A glorious book--an assured novel that's gorgeously told." --The New York Times Book Review "An incredibly moving epic about an unforgettable family." -- CBS Sunday Morning "[An] absorbing novel...I felt both grateful to have known these people and bereft at the prospect of leaving them behind." --The Washington Post A stunning novel about love, work, and marriage that asks how far one family and one community will go to protect their future. Colleen and Rich Gundersen are raising their young son, Chub, on the rugged California coast. It's 1977, and life in this Pacific Northwest logging town isn't what it used to be. For generations, the community has lived and breathed timber; now that way of life is threatened. Colleen is an amateur midwife. Rich is a tree-topper. It's a dangerous job that requires him to scale trees hundreds of feet tall--a job that both his father and grandfather died doing. Colleen and Rich want a better life for their son--and they take steps to assure their future. Rich secretly spends their savings on a swath of ancient redwoods. But when Colleen, grieving the loss of a recent pregnancy and desperate to have a second child, challenges the logging company's use of the herbicides she believes are responsible for the many miscarriages in the community, Colleen and Rich find themselves on opposite sides of a budding conflict. As tensions in the town rise, they threaten the very thing the Gundersens are trying to protect: their family. Told in prose as clear as a spring-fed creek, Damnation Spring is an intimate, compassionate portrait of a family whose bonds are tested and a community clinging to a vanishing way of life. An extraordinary story of the transcendent, enduring power of love--between husband and wife, mother and child, and longtime neighbors. An essential novel for our times.

Reviews
"In her astonishingly accomplished first novel, Ash Davidson reminds us that we are never more profoundly shaped by our environment than when we destroy it. Nearly every page left me in awe." --Anthony Marra, author of A Constellation of Vital Phenomena " Damnation Spring is that wonderful evocation of a world so complete you can''t believe it''s fiction, each character and moment drawn with precision and heart. Davidson crafts a portrait of a marriage inside a portrait of a town inside a portrait of an industry, refracting the consequences of capitalism through people''s lives and bodies. A masterful and sensitive explication of how humans are part of their environment no less than trees, mud, other animals, and water, this novel takes place forty years ago but could not be more relevant. If you want to know how we came to find ourselves amid an extinction event, or you need a gripping escape from considering the same, read this book." -- Merritt Tierce, author of Love Me Back "Unavoidable, maybe, but Damnation Spring recalls Kesey''s Sometimes a Great Notion , a big, rollicking crowd pleaser of a family saga set in hardscrabble logging country. Ash Davidson''s homespun characters aren''t just local color. Like their community, they face a reckoning as their lives and livelihoods collide with the wider world." --Stewart O''Nan, author of A World Away and Songs for the Missing "With its lavishly evoked, fog-bound rainforest, its sawtooth humor, shifting narrative perspectives, and testosterone-fueled battles against nature, Damnation Spring inevitably recalls Ken Kesey''s Sometimes A Great Notion . But Ash Davidson treads boldly beyond Kesey''s narrow vision to the profit motives that exploit a brutal machismo culture, bereft of health or humanity. Most poignantly, she gives voice to the women whose lives and unborn children succumb to chemical and timber company bottom lines. Her scenes of childbirth, grief, and helpless rage mirror in heartbreaking detail the reality of families in the poisoned, strip-mined clearcuts of the Pacific Northwest today." --Carol Van Strum, author of A Bitter Fog: Herbicides and Human Rights , and The Oreo File "So absorbing is Damnation Spring , so rich with the atmosphere of a time and a place, that when I laid the book down it? was hard not to look around my living room and wonder where the redwoods had gone. What impresses me the most about Ash Davidson and her writing is how deeply she understands her characters, and how sharply she has observed their world, yet how little fuss she makes about it. There''s not an ounce of ego on display here, which means that it''s never the singer you hear, always the song. And the song, in this case, is magnificent." --Kevin Brockmeier, author of The Ghost Variations and The Brief History of the Dead "Damnation Spring is, like the redwood trees at the center of its story, a beautiful, timeless, and breathtaking novel. It is painstakingly researched and lovingly crafted. But most importantly, the author is incredibly sensitive and tender with her characters, who, for the reader, quickly become as close as neighbors or family. Ultimately, time is the best judge of artistic quality, but for me, this book has all the makings of a classic. It is, in my estimation, a Great American Novel. A novel that tips its cap at writers like Steinbeck and Kesey, but also confidently forges ahead, blazing new paths. Just - a stunning, wondrous book." --Nickolas Butler, author of Shotgun Lovesongs and Little Faith " Damnation Spring dignifies the working-class experience with complicated characters whose hopes and heartbreaks at once transcend and are defined by their relationship to labor. Davidson evokes a story so vivid that readers will smell the trees, feel the damp, and--most importantly--care about a family." --Sarah Smarsh, author of Heartland

Description noted that the book was signed, but it didn't say it was also enscribed to Jessica. I was hoping to give this as a gift to someone whose name is NOT Jessica.
