On the morning of 9/11 I was living in Vancouver. Woke up to the news on the radio, turned on my tv and watched live as the second tower was struck. At work, we had a full view of the Fraser River, and stopped everything to watch plane after plane after plane land at YVR.

A Colvillian Canadian answer to the splashy American overkill of The Overstory, I think Obama would like this one better in its exploration of how hard it is to get back what we’ve lost no matter how much we might long for it.
