08.18: An Ivan Doig Tribute with Craig Lesley & Jeff Baker
2015-07-15 01:03:13| Powells Books Events Calendar
Donal Cameron is being raised by his grandmother, the cook at the legendary Double W ranch in the Two Medicine Country region of the Montana Rockies, a landscape that gives full rein to an 11-year-old's imagination. But when Gram has to have surgery in the summer of 1951, all she can think to do is to ship Donal off to her sister in faraway Manitowoc, Wisconsin. There Donal is in for a rude surprise: Aunt Kate — bossy, opinionated, and tyrannical — is nothing like her sister. She henpecks her good-natured husband, Herman the German, and Donal can't seem to get on her good side either. After one contretemps too many, Kate packs him back to the authorities in Montana on the next Greyhound. But Donal isn't traveling solo: Herman the German has decided to fly the coop with him. The pair light out for the territory together, meeting an ensemble of characters and having rollicking misadventures along the way. Charming, wise, and slyly funny, Ivan Doig's final novel, Last Bus to Wisdom (Riverhead), is a last sweet gift from a writer whose books have bestowed untold pleasure on countless readers. In tribute to the late author, this event will feature Craig Lesley (author of Winterkill and The Sky Fisherman) and Jeff Baker (book editor at The Oregonian) in conversation.
