Summary:
Author of 11 books, including a finalist for the National Book Award, Ivan Doig is hailed as the Wests preeminent literary novelist by The Denver Post. A Montana native and respected historian, Doig leavens this tale of the prairie frontier with wonderful humor.
In 1909, struggling to farm his remote homestead and raise three sons, widower Oliver Milliron desperately needs help. A housekeepers ad in a Milwaukee newspaper, Cant cook but doesnt bite, leads him to hire her sight unseen.
When perky Rose Llewellyn arrives, she brings along her brainy brother, Morris.
Though Rose whistles through her work at the Milliron house, and Morris becomes teacher at the one-room school, these two newcomers conceal a past that is colorful and infamous.
Told through the eyes of Olivers 13-year-old son, The Whistling Season is filled with humor, hardship, and surprising moments of discovery.
