Late Nights on Air Late Nights on Air

A character in Elizabeth's book describes good script writing as having simplicity, directness, and intimacy. Late Night on Air achieves all three. Whether we love or hate the main characters by the end of the book, we also know them as well as our own skin. And we know something of the north--its timeless fragility, and its ability to both save and destroy those who venture there.

689723 I reviewed this book for a column I write for my newspaper.

I thought it was really good at describing and capturing how offbeat characters are attracted to strange, remote locales.

I lived in Mongolia for four months, and I met a lot of strange people from all over the world during that time.
