Book Review: THE DELIGHT OF BEING ORDINARY by Roland Merullo (fiction, 2017)
The narrator, Paolo dePadova, is a cousin and trusted First Assistant to the Pope of Rome. The Pope has been having some very odd dreams, “almost like God is sending me messages in a kind of code. I want to get away for three or four days vacation. No formalities, no guards, no publicity. Just you and I; your wife Rosa, if she wants to come.” Among the state visitors that day is the Dalai Lama, Buddhist leader in exile from Tibet. He, too, has been having similar dreams, and is invited to go along.

Book Review: 'Death of a Proud Union,' by Art Norlen
Author Art Norlen came to the Silver Valley at age nineteen in 1928, having already worked briefly in the Montana copper mines. Typically in those days, miners’ wages were three dollars per twelve-hour day. Organized strikes for higher wages were illegal until about 1933. Art worked as a miner, and when collective bargaining between employer and employees later became legal, he served as “shop steward” in local 18 of the Mine-Mill Union, representing Kellogg. (Local 9 covered Mullan, local 14 covered Wallace.)
