The perfect Christmas present for your favorite bibliophile...

Have a friend/lover/enemy-you-want-to-make-amends-with who loves books?

Why not pick up a copy of my second novel, POUNDERS?



POUNDERS tells the story of a pair of brothers who venture into the wilderness of northern Canada for what the BBC has called one of the toughest jobs on the planet. To write it, I drew on a decade of summers spent in the world of industrial reforestation, bringing you a visceral tale of love, loss, and hand-planted trees.

Here are some of the things reviewers are saying about POUNDERS on amazon:

"In 'Pounders' Josh captures the essence of the tree planting experience... He does it with self-deprecating humor and a beauty of language that is a joy to read..."

- Jason

"Nine summers in planting camps have left me permanently scarred with nostalgia for the competing simplicity and complexity of life in the world of treeplanting a decade or so ago, and a desire for a greater presence in arts and literature to dive into the rich humus of relationships forged amidst the hardship and wildness of it all. Josh Barkey has done that with Pounders..."
