He wants to get away from it all. Despite a satisfying career as chief curator of a museum devoted to the vanished American past, he finds he himself wants to vanish. So with the help of a book on the life and culture of a vanished tribe of Indians known as Bluff-dwellers, he takes up residence in the wilderness of the Ozark mountains, with only a dog for company and only an atlatl--a primitive spear thrower--to provide him with his supper. His few amusements are the playing of tunes on a hair-comb-and-tissue and writing what he intends to be an indictment of modern civilization in his journals. He makes the acquaintance of a young moonshiner who keeps him supplied abundantly with corn liquor. But after six years of this life he realizes that what he is trying to get away from is himself.

The Bluff-dweller resonated with me
Another minor gripe was unlike the other Stay More books, I thought the post-modern elements in [b:Farther Along|2572534|Farther Along|Donald Harington|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1347685180s/2572534.jpg|2583895] detracted from the story.
Sub-par [a:Donald Harington|159630|Donald Harington|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1240153955p2/159630.jpg] is still pretty darn good though and well worth reading.
Bummed that only have one more left, [b:Enduring|6408441|Enduring|Donald Harington|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1347749757s/6408441.jpg|6597355]
