My friend Andrew’s book

Andrew Brown, who was one of the Templeton-Cambridge journalism fellows with me last year, has a new book out, “Fishing in Utopia: Sweden and the Future that Disappeared.” It got a great review from The Economist, Potential Turbulence (registration is required).

A couple of samples: “Mr Brown’s prose is as clear and bewitching as the lake waters in which he learns to fish.”

“Readers who know the Nordic countries will delight in the author’s keen ear and eye for the nuances of language, landscape and social customs.”

Having learned about fishing and many other things from Andrew, I’m eager to go read the book.
