Resumen del Editor

Mysterious dreams of grizzly bears, a bumbling FBI agent, and a tense hostage negotiation have the town of Cold Storage, Alaska, turned upside down.

Things in the fishing town of Cold Storage, Alaska, are changing. It's the summer of 1968; the men are wearing their hair long, the Vietnam War is at its height, and multiple assassinations have gripped the country. But some things remain the same. Ellie's bar is still the place to catch up on the town gossip, and there's a lot to talk about, from the boys who have returned from the war (and the ones who haven't), to the robberies that are plaguing the locals, to the new guy in town: a famous monk from Kentucky.

Ellie, herself a fugitive of sorts, is curious about this "Brother Louis," and worries about his motives, but he seems harmless enough. However, when a handful of other outsiders arrive to town and start poking around the bar and asking questions, Ellie begins to have reservations. Have they followed this mysterious monk, rumored to be the famous author Thomas Merton, to Cold Storage? And what is it that they want, particularly the inept FBI agent with the strange name: Boston Corbot?

Inspired by assassination conspiracy theories, the life of Thomas Merton, and the changing tide of the '60s, Blown by the Same Wind is a coming-of-age story for the town of Cold Storage as a whole.

A fine yarn

I really enjoyed this book. The story, set in the horrible, pivotal year of 1968, brought back many memories and moved me. The narration is outstanding.

Lyrical, calm, a meditation on experience

The further along I get, the more I enjoy the rhythm of John Straley’s latest novel. There is action to be sure, but it serves a purpose and is not just sitting there. There’s a lot being said, and a whole lot left unspoken, and the mixture is… refreshing. What a pleasure to have Straley among us.

Classic Cold Storage

Straley delivers again! His characters are as real as the western edge of the continent demands. His landscapes and vistas bring Alaska and the Pacific Northwest alive in my imagination. I have been privileged to see some of this breathtaking part of the world. Seeing more through his eyes is incredibly satisfying.
