A great gift for adults who stopped reading fiction for one reason or the other, & who might enjoy a new story-teller's work This book will make a great holiday present for anyone who learned to love reading novels as a way to shift attention outward from the here and now into the previously unimagined landscape of a new world. Finishing up, I wondered what might happen next, happy with the uncertainty. Western poet Tom Herren wrote: "Snow is falling west of here. The mountains have more
