A heads-up from a Dallas bookworm

Lorlee Bartos writes:

Stan,

I am reading "The Plague of Doves" by Louise Erdrich. And there on Page 16 is the following: "In Erling Nicolai Rolfsrud's compendium of memorable women and men from North Dakota ...." and then the author goes on to describe "Mustache Maud Black."

You probably already knew this -- but if not, -- wanted to be sure that you saw it.

Thanks, Lorlee. No. Somehow "The Plague of Doves" is not on my reading list so I would have missed this passage entirely. Thanks for the heads up. Mustache Maud. Hmm. A woman with a mustache. How extraordinary.
Fondly, Stan
