By STEPHEN ALEXANDER The Tribune

During the time I was living in Fairbanks, Alaska, I devel- oped a theory about why the Russian classics are so long. See, when you’re in Siberia without a television, there’s not much to do other than read LONG novels. The works of Leo Tostoy and Fyodor Dostoevsky certainly provide hours worth of reading to ease the boredom of a long winter inside. But when the weather turns warm — as it certainly has in Portland the past few Book weeks — sit- ting around Report and reading “War and Peace” or “Crime and Punish- ment” are not exactly what you want to be doing. Summer is a time to read light, or even trashy, books while you’re sitting at the beach, or on your deck with a cold beverage. So now that summer is here, it’s time to put down the Russians and pick up some easy reads. There will be plenty of time to read the hard stuff once the rain returns to the Rose City.
