This is my first book by Leif Enger and it won't be my last. This book was amazing and kept my attention from the first page.

Virgil Wander is the main character and the story centers around the people he knows and his take on them after he is driving and flies off the cliff into Lake Superior. After he come out of his concussion he realizes he is different and does not know why. His memory and his language is altered, but his Doctor tells him it will all come back in time.

Virgil owns the movie theater in Greenstone, a dying mining town where he lives, and he starts piecing his life back a little at a time with the help of all his friends, and new friends as well.

I don't want to give too much away but this author has weaved a tale of life in a small town with the same people, most born there, and weaved a tale of ordinary life into a tale of magic and love, perseverance, and the ability to survive no matter what happens! Will Greenstone ever make a comeback- read and find out!
