LUNCH at NOONMARK is an intriguing collection of short stories revolving around the life and times of a young native New Yorker named Topher Jones. From his childhood summers with grandparents in Indian Lake, through his camp counselor experience with youngsters at the Siamese Ponds, to his terrifying moment of panic while ice climbing Gothic Mountain's North Face, Topher's experiences provide a rich tapestry of the development and maturing of a young man through the momentous magic and power of the Adirondack Mountains. LUNCH AT NOONMARK is a great first collection of stories from a promising young writer of both fiction and poetry in the Champlain Valley.
