And if you’ve read John’s father’s book, A River Runs Through It and Other Stories, you know that cabin, and the Blackfoot River, and John’s Uncle Paul — though you won’t know Uncle Paul’s whole story, until you read Home Waters.Featured books: Home Waters by John Maclean, A River Runs Through It and Other Stories by Norman Maclean, Ernest Hemingway’s short story, The Big Two-Hearted River (included in the collection In Our Time), and a Sherlock Holmes omnibus. Produced/hosted by Miwa Messer and engineered by Harry Liang.Poured Over: The B&N Podcast is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
