The Kloochman is an extraordinary first novel. Its setting in the new American frontier—Alaska, its book towns swarming with construction workers, soldiers, men out for a quick dollar. And always the natives—especially the girls, the klooches—caught on the fringes of the white man’s world, their lives crazily spiralling between two extremes: the short burst of summer, of flash riches spent in lust and drink, and the long, agonising winter’s night.
