The Floor of the Sky by Pamela Joern
“The Floor of the Sky honors the pleasures and pitfalls of family without a shred of sentimentality. . . . Joern . . . is a fine writer incapable of excess or artifice. Written in present tense, the book has an unintentionally cinematic quality. Its dialogue is varied and authentic. . . . Ron Hansen [Flyover Fiction series editor] . . . uncover[s] a quiet little gem in Joern’s debut.”—Pamela Miller, Minneapolis Star-Tribune
