Recensione
"Brilliantly written and mesmerically evocative, Köepf's extraordinary novel is a tribute to tough men and their long-suffering, and sometimes
not-so-long-suffering, families."
--The Los Angeles Times
"[Köepf] has filled The Fisherman's Son with bountiful helpings of the heart and vigor that we look for in the Great American Novel."
--The Oregonian
"Imagine Sebastian Junger's The Perfect Storm without its long-winded passages or the dry-as-toast science. That's what you get with Michael Köepf's powerful and poignant novel."
--The Denver Post
"The memories and flashbacks that compose the bulk of the book display a remarkable diversity. They range through adventures on the high seas, coming-of-age tales, family dramas, and some absolutely superb descriptions of the daily work on a fishing boat. . . . My eight-year-old son, who insisted I read to him all the shipwreck scenes, listened wide-eyed, gulping, utterly enthralled."
--The San Francisco Chronicle
