Fish Food: A Feminist Moby Dick

By Grace Alexandra Hayden

Healing and growth happen in the strangest places . . .

Spanning three years of her life, Grace Hayden's memoir, Fish Food: A Feminist Moby Dick, documents her recovery from trauma involving love and loss. Unable to medicate childhood wounds with alcohol and drugs, Hayden grapples with sex addiction as an obstacle to finding the love and peace she craves. Like Ahab's wounding by the white whale, Hayden humanizes the healing journey, transforming the pain that lingers just below the surface. For her, fly-fishing for muskie in Minnesota and Wisconsin is what allowed her to reconnect with her authentic self; the waters she fished provided transformation. This book--moving, honest, and humorous--is an invitation to follow your bliss.
