Paul is a Professor of English at Eastern Washington University. His ecological memoir, In Earshot of Water, was the 2012 winner of the Washington State Book Award. “To read In Earshot of Water is to enter the mind of a first-rate naturalist, a devoted father, and a keen observer of all the confounding ways people find to live in place. To read this book is to learn again how to listen, how to forgive, and ultimately, how to love life that is sometimes as cruel as it is beautiful.”—Kathleen Dean Moore, author, Wild Comfort
Copies of In Earshot of Water will be available for purchase on site.
