Salmon Fishing in the Yemen

"Every so often a novel comes along that is quite original; think of Yann Martel's enchanting "Life of Pi"... [A] commentary on the value of belief to mankind. [T]hought-provoking and memorable." –The Economist

What does it take to make us believe in the impossible?

For Dr. Alfred Jones, life is a quiet mixture of civil service at the National Centre for Fisheries Excellence and marriage to Mary—an ambitious, no-nonsense financier. But a strange turn of fate from an unexpected direction forces Jones to upend his existence and pursue another man's ludicrous dream. Is salmon fishing in the Yemen impossible? Maybe nothing is.

"[A] journey from skepticism to belief."--The New York Times

"The remarkable thing is that a book about so deeply serious a matter can make you laugh, all the way to a last twist…. [A] parable about the mystery of belief and its transforming power… Salmon Fishing is extraordinary indeed, and a triumph." -The Guardian

"Torday's clear talent is in striking…a variety of notes, from soulful to satirical, and making them work as one bracing, bittersweet whole. -- Seattle Times
