changing light

Changing Light, by Nora Gallagher, is a book set in Los Alamos, New Mexico in the 1940s. I'm not sure what you'd say the theme of the book is, but several of the main characters are involved with building the atomic bomb. There is also a love story, interactions with indigenous people, and an Episcopal priest. I like books that are set in places I identify with--and New Mexico is Arizona's neighbor. There's really so much culture here. Also, the Episcopal stuff. It's a good book. 223 pages.
