Judy Gette on June 18th at noon moderated the Radio Book Club with Talis Colberg, Director of Mat Su College, and Melissa Behnke, local small town advocate, discussing The Lost Continent: Travels in Small Town America by Bill Bryson. After ten years in England, Bryson returned to the land of his youth, and drove almost 14,000 miles in search of a mythical small town called Amalgam, the kind of trim and sunny place where the films of his youth were set. Instead, his search led him to Anywhere, USA; a lookalike strip of gas stations, motels and hamburger outlets populated by lookalike people with a penchant for synthetic fibres.
