Publisher's summary

Ronald R. Van Stockum, Jr. has written a book which investigates a place we know not, but will certainly explore. When Tony, the narrator, steps into a shallow flat boat, we are heading into uncharted waters that is "wickedly weird".

As new characters enter the boat and begin their own voyage, Tony deals with questions that have plagued him during life. Questions of how we look upon God, how men relate to women, and how words can be deceiving and "strung out like vines with which to strangle".

He also ponders how far he must risk his life, comparing his motivations with feelings of family that he observes on the boat. The author is a wordsmith who enjoys mixing allusions and sometimes a brief tutorial in history, literature, or biology within his brand of magical realism. He uses alternating tenses and persons, and yet, writes so that we fearlessly follow him.

Praise for the book:

"Be prepared to get swept up in the unknown journeys of this latest book The Dawn of Dusk." (Mary Popham, author of Back Home in Landing Run)
