Ein Haus in der Wildnis

From the best-selling author of "Shipping News" and "Brokeback Mountain". In her memoirs Annie Proulx tells of her love for her adopted home of Wyoming and her dream of building the house of her dreams there, in a very lonely area on a river below rugged cliffs amidst prairie grass and swamp. At the same time, she explores the history of this area once inhabited by Indians as well as the fascinating family history of her French ancestors, remembers her childhood, observes birds and nature. Annie Proulx's adventurous dream of a house in the wilderness thus becomes a panorama of a rich life and a whole world.
