Books about Oregon

Ken Kesey statue, downtown Eugene, 2006
If you’re looking for books to read while you’re vacationing in Oregon, start with the late Ken Kesey’s “Sometimes a Great Notion.”

The essential Oregon novel, it was written by Kesey before he got famous and ran afoul of the ’60s. A wild and wonderful, tragic and inspiring logging family that raises a ruckus with its independent ways. Also a movie, not as good.
