"Years ago the British writer Ronald Blythe (author of AKENFIELD) conducted a series of conversations with the very old and called it THE VIEW IN WINTER. MOUNTAIN CITY, part elegy, part defiance of the elegiac, is the winter view from northern Nevada. More than anything, the old need to be touched, one of Blythe's ancients told him.
