When I am traveling, I choose the books that will keep me company according to weight! So I browse the library before I go for interesting paperbacks.

I find it fascinatingly synchronistic that thsi book, which I will read on the plane happens to also be from an author with Midwestern Norwegian background. I've read and enjoyed Stegner before but didn't realize this. He was born in Lake Mills, Iowa.
