The Martha’s Vineyard Times ran a Q&A with me this morning, along with a great review of the book by author and fisherman Paul Fersen.
“What Kinney uncovers in documenting this event,” he writes, “is the deep cultural underbelly of a fishing society that few people on the outside will understand. … [U]ltimately, the book does what a good book should do — it tells a great tale and like most great nonfiction, it reveals characters fiction writers would be hard-pressed to duplicate. If you fish, or love the Vineyard, or — best case — both, The Big One is well worth the time, the firewood, and the scotch.”
