Former Seattle Weekly Editor Releases Collection of Columnsnew
Knute Berger, who edited the Weekly for nearly 15 years before leaving in July 2006, is releasing Pugetopolis: A Mossback Takes on Growth Addicts, Weather Wimps, and the Myth of Seattle Nice this month. Many of the essays in the book, which covers the region's identity, first ran as columns in the Weekly. "To me the book has been my sort of ongoing personal exploration to be a Seattleite," Berger tells the Seattle Times. "I hope that people will read it and just sort of enjoy thinking about our identity."
