David Guterson's new novel is 'Evelyn in Transit'

Joe Donahue

David Guterson's latest novel ‘Evelyn in Transit’ is a spare luminous meditation on what it means to live an examined life. At its heart is Evelyn, a restless midwestern misfit, who hits the road hitchhiking across the American West in search of truth and purpose. Parallel to her journey is a story of a Tibetan boy raised as a Buddhist monk whose lives seem worlds apart but is mysteriously linked, especially when a trio of llamas arrives to proclaim Evelyn’s young son the reincarnation of a great llama.
