A heartwarmingly passionate, and deliciously charming debut novel, Bear Necessity traces how a father and son overcome their grief in surprising ways . . .
Filled with a delightful cast of characters, Bear Necessity is a refreshingly unpretentious and ultimately uplifting story of a father and son reconnecting in the most unlikely of circumstances that will appeal to fans of Nick Hornby and/or Graeme Simsion.
“Gould-Bourn is a perceptive writer who has crafted a moving, sensitive story that is also very funny. Bear Necessity is a perfect literary antidote to anxious, troubled times." -- Shelf Awareness for Readers
