Virgil Wander

And then give in to this fairytale of a novel from Leif Enger, his first in ten years. With prose that soothes and enchants as well as slays, Virgil Wander is a story set in a small Minnesota town on the shore of Lake Superior. Greenstone, with its lost industrial relevance and the magic of a small-town movie theatre, is trying to re-invent itself. When an intriguing new-comer arrives looking for his long-lost son, it seems the door to any possibility is opened.
