From the (Dala) Horse's Mouth

Eric Dregni won a Fullbright Scholarship to his homeland of Norway. The result--beyond Fullbright-quality research, I'm sure--is his new book In Cod We Trust. The book was blurbed by Walter Mondale and Patricia Hampl.

Now comes another good review from no less an authority than norway.org. They say In Cod We Trust is good fun for readers: "If you are looking for an academic anthropological study challenging the stereotypical conceptions of Norwegians, you will have to turn elsewhere. If you’re looking for a witty account of the cultural differences between Norway and the United States, however, look no further."

Eric Dregni will give a reading in our store Sunday, October 5, at 6:00pm.--David E
