Back in October, when he was doing his tour of downtown, Rep. Peter Welch made a show of supporting local business by buying a copy of Jonathan Franzen's "Freedom: A Novel" at the Book King.
Once I was done talking to him about the western rail corridor Friday, I asked him what he thought of it.
He hadn't read it yet.
"I've got two books that I've read in between," he said. "Tom Powers just wrote a book about Crazy Horse -- I'm halfway through it. I just finished 'War' by Sebastian Junger. Jonathan Franzen is next."
