Críticas

"Someday [Blei's] Door County will join the great mythical-real landscapes that include Salinas, Spoon River, and Yoknapatawpha."--Harry Mark Petrakis |"Norbert Blei is a writer the way people used to be troubadours and minstrels, celebrating what he has seen and heard and felt in a deceptively simple style reminiscent of the early Sherwood Anderson... Like Anderson, he is a lover, and his affection invests his writing with a singular charm."--Sydney J. Harris |"Blei's friends and neighbors have not escaped the world; they are very much a part of it, involved in the vital issues of our times."--Publishers Weekly |"Blei has a fine ear and a genuine, searching, feeling humanity."--Chicago Tribune |"A fascinating assemblage of profiles that adds up to a vivid, feeling portrait of a region."--Studs Terkel |"Blei's finely wrought story of a Door County car salesman ... is just one of the Door Way stories that put Blei in the ranks of Faulkner et alia."-River Falls Journal

Weaving a tapestry of lives and landscapes, past and present, earth and water, Norbert Blei celebrates the unique heritage of Door County, Wisconsin, a spectacular peninsula reaching into Lake Michigan. Blei ponders the balance of nature in a place where locals, tourists, and developers vie with the native flora and fauna of forests and lakeshore.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
