Jim Lynch's (The Highest Tide) second novel explores division--between the natural world and everyday human experience, between communities, and individuals. It's also a hopeful vision of the commonalities we can discover if we look at things just a little differently, the way Brandon Vanderkool--a 6'8" dyslexic, bird watcher who joins the Border Patrol--does. Lynch's masterful use of metaphor unlocks these divisions and commonalities and offers an extraordinary potential for a dramatic re-telling in the Book-It Style™. Border Songs is a 2010 Washington State Book Award-winner.
