The Community Read in Cambridge, Minn. this year is "Safe from the Sea" by Peter Geye. It's set in Northern Minnesota and sounds quite fascinating. (Don't be surprised if it's my book choice in a few months :)

his dying father, a former iron ore ship officer, he is forced to return
to Minnesota to care for a man he hasn't spoken to in years.Safe From
the Sea is a beautifully written novel that describes so well the unique
sense of place that is the Lake Superior landscape. Click here to listen to Peter read an excerpt from Safe From the Sea.
