Sailor Song is a 1992 novel written by Ken Kesey. Sailor Song takes place sometime in the 2020s and details the lives of the residents of Kuinak, a small town in Alaska. It is a quiet, small fishing town, until a Hollywood movie crew come to shoot a scene and transform the town.[1]
It centers around a small group of people, including Isaak Sallas, a sometimes reluctant hero, his Jamaican friend Emil Greer, his boss fisherman Michael Carmody and Carmody's wife, the oft angry Alice Carmody. Isaak finds himself in a vendetta against the leader of the movie crew, an old cell mate Nicholas Levertov, who also happens to be Alice Carmody's son.
