John Yunker (The Tourist Trail) and Midge Raymond (Forgetting English)

In The Tourist Trail, John Yunker weaves together the stories of bioligist Angela Haynes, who works at a penguin research station in Patagonia; FBI agent Robert Porter, dispatched on a mission that unearths a past he would rather keep buried; and Ethan Downes, a passionate activist and computer tech. Midge Raymond's Forgetting English takes us around the world from the stark, icy moonscape of Antarctica to the lonely islands of the South Pacific, introducing us to characters who have abandoned their native landscapse to confront new interpretations of who they are.
