Late Nights on Air

I finished Late Nights on Air last week. The last third of the book took a rather unexpected departure--four of the characters went on a 6-week hiking and canoeing trip. As much as I found myself wanting to learn about Yellowknife--the setting of the first two-thirds of the book, Elizabeth Hays' descriptions of the vast, unpopulated wilderness of the Northwestern Territories was quite beautiful. The very end of the book was a little odd, but overall I found this book to be very readable and compelling. On to Richard Price's Lush Life.
