Author Visit: Brian Duren, "Whiteout"

Meet Brian Duren, the author of Whiteout, an intense, moving story about how lost a family can get and how it can right itself again. According to a recent book review by Mary Logue, winner of the Minnesota Book Award for Fiction, “The atmosphere of the north woods permeates the novel and gives it a deep claustrophobic, gothic sense. Duren takes the metaphor of the whiteout—the complete blankness of the world, the possibility of erasing everything—and shows that it is not the answer. Instead, in this lovely, lyrically written novel, he gives us the power of the truth.” Duren lives in St. Paul, MN.
