"Just loved Doig's descriptions of his grandmother and the bond which forms between the grandmother and her widowed son-in-law (Doig's father)."

"Friends know that fiction is a favorite companion. My book group chose an inordinate number of nonfiction selections this year, so despite my deep appreciation of Doig's novels, I worried about reading this biography of his youth in Montana. My fear was groundless. His way with words, especially his creative use of verbs, and his talent at capturing the landscape make this book as rich as his novels. Many incidents from his life have ended up in his novels, so it was like encountering old friends to read of people and events familiar from fiction. This lovely book illustrates Doig's lovely mind."

"I re-read this last weekend and it's just as beautiful and lyrical and fully encompassing of the West as it was the first time I read it. You really can't be a Westerner, no matter how long your family has been here, until you've read 'This House of Sky'."

By Stephanie, Seattle, WA

"Ok, I read this one as a disgruntled graduate student at the University of Washington, mainly because Ivan Doig wrote this book while HE was a disgruntled graduate student at the University of Washington. It definitely has the right feel to it. A bit dark, with an emphasis on family that is often so lacking in graduate school, but with a glimmer of hope at the end. I really look forward to reading more of his work."
