Cleveland gets little respect in many quarters. It's a great place to live nowadays, but its still known as the town where the river caught fire. Author Keith Gandal grew up in Cleveland, and he tries to exorcise some of the bad feelings in his novel "Cleveland Anonymous". The novel is a thriller, a love story, and a mystery, but Gandal says he also wants it to be a book of healing for anyone suffering from Midwestern angst. He came in to the MPR studios to talk with Euan Kerr. He began by reading an excerpt from the book, in which a member of a New York support group for ex-residents of Cleveland is unhappy. Keith Gandal will read from his book "Cleveland Anonymous" at the "Bound to be Read" bookstore in St Paul tomorrow evening at 7.
