Leif Enger

Virgil Wander Fiction!
Village Books is thrilled to welcome Leif Enger back to the Readings Gallery! Peace Like a River has long been, and continues to be, a staff favorite. This is an event not to be missed.
With intelligent humor and captivating whimsy, Leif Enger conjures a remarkable portrait of a region and its residents, who, for reasons of choice or circumstance, never made it out of their defunct industrial district. Carried aloft by quotidian pleasures including movies, fishing, necking in parked cars, playing baseball and falling in love, Virgil Wander is a swift, full journey into the heart and heartache of an often overlooked American Upper Midwest by a master storyteller.
