Apples on the Nashwaak tells the stories of five generations of Irish families who called this place “home”.… a gravel road climbs to a fifty-acre field, to where blankets of paintbrush blend into sky. The Nashwaak River Valley runs far below.The field lies deserted now, abandoned to wild roses and raspberries. Rock piles—150-year heaps—half submerged in the treeline, icebergs of the understorey.… a straggle of old apple trees … all that’s left of a life long gone—house, barn, paddocks and sheds; gardens behind fences of cedar rail and stone.I come here to run my dogs … an open door to the wild, it stirs the wolf in their blood.This field, these woodland trails … walk them; go deep. Though feet lose their way, the mind finds the path to a settled place. The soul inhales, quiets, soars; begins to nestle in.…what follows is free flow, a river on the run. Facts carried, facts buried—trails of truth through a field of fiction.–from the PrefaceApples on the Nashwaak received the Writers’ Federation of New Brunswick 2018 Alfred G. Bailey Award for poetry. 3
