Any Ivan Doig fans in the crowd?

I recently purchased his novel 'Bucking The Sun'

and I am enjoying it very much.

2. He grew up just miles from my hometown, and his childhood

was similar to mine. Even to the same university.
I am taken back to that place by his stories.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_Doig :

"Much of his fiction is set in the Montana country of his youth.
His major theme is family life in the past, mixing personal memory and regional history. "
