A fracking good novel for an “on deck” read!

A novel about fracking…
Fractures, by Lamar Herrin
It’s a beautiful day today, just had a meeting all afternoon in the park in Zumbrota, and it’s a perfect day to sit on the deck in the SUN (what a concept!) and read!
For those of us “in the middle” dealing with frac sand mining and the Bakken BOOM trains, this book is a must read, dealing with the big picture and the more mundane, how one family copes and doesn’t cope when fracking comes to their community and their land. This book is a welcome sidebar to our day to day activism.
It’s at the Red Wing library, in the SELCO system, and you can find it at abebooks.com.

Nice to see someone else has written a novel about the results of fracking. Mine, “From Thine Own Well,” takes place in Yukon, Canada. I look forward to picking up a copy of “Fractures.” Thanks for posting this.
