<DIV>In one of Glen Chamberlain&rsquo;s magnetic new stories, &ldquo;Off the Road; or, The Perfect Curve Unfound,&rdquo; the narrator sets off from Seattle for Michigan, &ldquo;once again making the decision to leave before being left.&rdquo;&#160;At Three Forks, Montana, a flight of geese take her off the road, into the Crazy Mountains, into a place the Indians consider one of the centers of the world, where she finds her own center.&#160;Each of the stories in this irresistible collection inhabits a center of the world, a piece of Montana country that she makes uniquely her own, whether she is writing about rearing Arabian horses, or building the three-generation history of a family around the evolution of hay-stacking, or ice-skating with Kate Brethwaite, the formidable physics teacher at Buckle High School, as she makes her increasingly exhausting journey by way of ice from a community skating place to her locked and forbidding home.&#160;Whether the stories are about living, loving or dying they inhabit the essences of their actions and compel the reader to view fresh terrains of the author&rsquo;s rich and original imagination.</div><BR>
