The winter in Anna

"A young man, Eric, drops out of college and lucks into a job with a small-town newspaper where he meets Anna - woman whose story will both haunt and inspire him for the rest of his life. Set in a remote North Dakota community in the last days before the Internet, The Winter in Anna unfolds around a romance that almost was, and a meditation on what constitutes a life well lived. In wistful, moving reflections, Eric looks back on his days with Anna and struggles to reconcile his memories with what he has since learned of her."--Amazon.com.
