Didn’t remember ordering, but I must have, since I received in the mail a copy of The Glacier’s Daughters from Powell’s books in Portland. The inscription reads, “To Julie, to honor her graduation, her many achievements, and her lost backpack. St. Brigid’s Day, 1983.” then signed by me. I’m thinking it must have been Julie Kane, though who knows now. The book looks like it has never been opened. Each instance of this is devastating. How little one meant to people who meant something once.
