Lynn Stegner makes this welcome return from her Santa Fe home to read from her fourth, and newest, novel, Because a Fire Was in My Head (University of Nebraska). "A strikingly rendered, dark and troubling novel about one woman's confused journey toward what she believes may well be herself. With exquisite precision, Lynn Stegner has captured Kate Riley's life in all its shadows and specters. A harrowing book, beautifully told." - Bret Lott. "A brilliant book, more solid than the ground we stand on. This novel does honor to the best in the tradition of storytelling, even though you occasionally want to shove the heroine off the highest possible cliff. In other words, you are drawn into the story, and when you have finished you have added amplitude to your knowledge of the human condition." - Jim Harrison. The Literary Ventures Fund has aided in the publication and promotion of this book.
