Review by Jonathan F. Lowe

If you remember the movie by the same name, starring Brad Pitt, you might enjoy hearing Norman MacLean’s masterpiece A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT, about how fly fishing unites a troubled family in western Montana in 1937. Ivan Doig narrates the story with a natural grace, his subtle insights complimenting this lyrical story about love and loss.
