Author Todd Goddard will visit Traverse City to discuss his new biography, "Devouring Time: Jim Harrison, A Writer's Life," the first full portrait of the legendary Michigan-born writer known for Legends of the Fall, Dalva, and his fiercely poetic spirit.
Through extensive research and rare access to Harrison’s papers, Goddard captures the novelist, poet, and larger-than-life character who helped shape contemporary American literature—and whose love of nature, food, and wild places made him unforgettable.
“Devouring Time will stand as a complete and moving portrait… Raw and revealing, yet with a sensitive eye for both the pain and the talent that made Jim one of modern America’s most intriguing poets and novelists.”
—Carl Hiaasen, New York Times bestselling author
