Is a River Alive? Steve Thueson So with a little bit

So with a little bit of magic from the lake of the night

It is spring in 1963 and George Smiley has left the Circus

But what defines loneliness

For the first time in a deluxe

In this sharply funny and exquisitely relatable story of romantic disaster and friendship
