"We used to spend money we earned hoeing at a raspberry farm to send away for books we saw advertised in Argosy or Stag or True magazine that would give us what they called secret powers. If you're hoeing raspberries for thirty cents an hour in the hot sun what you want is secret powers."
Jim Harrison, Brown Dog (novella)
Harrison is also the author of the novella Legends of the Fall, which I have yet to read, as it is not shelved at the library branch that I patronize.
