About this deal

Matty Matheson as Neil Fak (starring season 2, recurring season 1), a childhood friend of the Berzattos, and sometimes-handyman for the restaurant.

Jay Chesters’ ‘Year of the Bear’ is a collection of contemporary short stories with elements of science fiction, fantasy and folklore. The characters are relatable to the people in our everyday lives, whether we know them or know of them. Situations speak of the events past, present and future and some are so striking, even unbelievably plausible that every now and then we have to stop and ask ourselves what’s real and what’s a metaphor. Poland is protecting the Carpathian mountains poorly. Only 3 per cent of the forest is really protected, the rest is being logged or built on,” he said. The author, Douglas J. Lanzo, does a fabulous job describing the Maine countryside and wildlife. I can tell the author has done extensive research, not only on the Penobscot Tribe's history and customs but also on how they used tools from nature to fish, hunt, cook, and build canoes and other artifacts. The author also does well describing and showing the bear's personality and reactions. The best comparison of this book, I feel, is THE LITTLE HOUSE IN THE BIG WOODS by Laura Engels, which also has these elaborate explanations of how settlers and farmers survived during the 1800s. While THE YEAR OF THE BEAR is set in 1985, it still has this feel of a time long forgotten.

Now in its 38th year, the Coach of the Year award winner will be announced live from Houston’s Post Oak Hotel on Wednesday, January 10, 2024, during an awards ceremony presented by Marathon Oil. The watch list, finalists and Coach of the Year recipient are voted on by the National Sports Media Association, the Bryant Awards’ Executive Leadership Team and the Bryant Family. The Year of the Bear is a wonderful coming-of-age story. Jason, our young protagonist, faces a series of challenges, both physical and emotional, and comes out as a better young man as a result. The adventurous story draws you in and the development of the characters keeps you reading. Congratulations on a wonderful story." The plot was less about bear-raising than I expected, but I think that made it a much more interesting read, for me. On the other hand, the novel is entitled The Year of the Bear, so maybe that’s the point: just walking with Jason through this pivotal year in his life. It’s a formative year for him, as opposed to a formative moment. Even so, I wish that more of the book could have carried/contributed to the power of the ending.

As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, I have recent Indigenous ancestry, and my main draw to this book was its emphasis on Indigenous culture: specifically, that of the Penobscot Indians. This is not an #OwnVoices novel, but it is written about a boy who has close Penobscot friends, in the 1980s.

Something I really appreciate, in the discussion about forgiveness, is that Lanzo strongly emphasizes the truth that God is the One to change our hearts so that we can forgive. Pronounced sexual dimorphism exists among bears, meaning that the males are much larger than the females. The largest bears have an advantage when it comes to mating because their size allows them to ward off competing males. However, it can also intimidate females and make them more difficult to woo. The act of courting an estrus female may take several days of simply shadowing her movements before she allows the male to come closer. Once they have established intimate behavior — grazing, playing and resting together — the female will permit her suitor to mount. Zorrilla, Mónica Marie (June 27, 2023).
