Thoreau had Walden Pond. Luke Frazier has String Lake. He goes to this jewel of the Grand Tetons when he’s in a contemplative mood—or itching to fish for rainbow trout (thus the title Bows on the String). We find Luke’s style reminiscent of Winslow Homer: the sense of natural light, the idyllic moment and dare we say it?—that hat, which looks like it was whisked off the head of one of the farmer boys in Snap the Whip.
