Broken Wing

From acclaimed author David Budbill, Broken Wing is a posthumous novel celebrating solitude, nature, and the human spirit. Set in the deep woods of Vermont, this lyrical literary fiction follows a man who lives alone in the mountains and his unexpected journey to friendship with an injured black bird.

The man who lives alone in the mountains exists in solitude and simplicity. His days are spent tending his garden and observing wildlife. His nights are spent immersed in music, poetry, letter writing, and, most importantly, bird watching.

As November arrives and he prepares for winter, he discovers an injured black bird, which he names Broken Wing. Drawn to its spirit of survival and freedom, he forms a profound connection that sparks inspiration and friendship.

Both lyrical and reflective, Broken Wing offers a gentle mirror to the peaks and valleys of human existence and the rhythm of life. Against the backdrop of changing seasons, this nature-inspired fiction novel invites readers into a world of quiet observation, heartfelt insight, and poetic storytelling.
