About this book

A National Book Award Finalist, This House of Sky is a memoir by Ivan Doig about his childhood in the rugged wilderness of western Montana, among sheepherders, small-town saloons, and valley ranches. Through examining his past, Doig explores how the landscape shaped him, as well as his relationships with his parents and others who influenced his values. The memoir examines themes of intimacy, independence, love, and family, and their connection to one's sense of place and identity. Doig presents a story rooted in the American West that also speaks to universal human experiences and the desire to understand one's own history.
