I wanted to thank the Diane Rhem show for sharing Per Petterson with me. I loved the interview Diane did w/ Per Petterson and immediately went to find his books. I started with "Out Stealing Horses", than I read "To Siberia", than "In The Wake" and now I am about to finish "I Curse the River". All the novels are so brilliant and I love how hints of characters and places are mixed through out each novel. Now I am excited about his next novel.
I just love The Diane Rhem Show. I love the book interviews and book reviews. I just wanted to take a moment and say, "Thank You So Much!!"~Rebecca
