I thought I’d bring this to your attention. I’m halfway through reading The power of the dog by Thomas Savage. This is being pushed as another undiscovered classic from the publishers (well they would, wouldn’t they ?) that brought you Stoner. I think this is better. It’s set in the Montana ranch lands, a story of two brothers in the mid 20th century. There’s some fantastically rich & descriptive writing and the two brothers are really well drawn characters. There was a lot of love for Stoner on this site. Have a look out for this.

Here’s some Montana banjo music, let’s have some more Western music.
