Crossing to Safety

Wallace Stegner

Recommended by 2 people on the record.

The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 7d is days, 4yr is years.

Greg Mankiw loved it
Here are a few of my favorites, which are good reading even for the econ-averse: "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" by Mark Haddon "The Mind-Body Problem" by Rebecca Goldstein "Interpreter of Maladies" by Jhumpa Lahiri "Crossing to Safety" by Wallace Earle Stegner "Happenstance: Two Novels in One About a Marriage in Transition" by Carol Shields

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
