  • The Cover — Fisherfolk have swell imaginations. They dream about the size of fish they are going to catch, about the ones that are hooked but get away and, if they have boyhood’s mental elasticity, about the great length of what they do catch. Take Browny and Whitey, there. Do they see before them, as artist Amos Sewell claims he does, a midget trout? Nonsense. They don’t even see that kitchen. Away out in the deep woods is where they dream they are. So it’s nightfall, with a star-flecked sky doing a double-take in the mirror of a still lake. Six mighty fish are sputtering in the campfire glow, and around them drifts the most delicious aroma in all creation. (If mother shows up before the boys return home, don’t worry. She’s a good guy; she’ll go along with a dream.)
