^^ It's a bit old fashioned - given when it was written - but if you've read any Simak, he's well worthwhile. My favorite of his is a short story called "The Thing in The Stone".
Sorry to be riffing books at you, but if you like Way Station, you might also enjoy a really obscure one by Ward Moore called "Bring the Jubilee". I read it at 16 and it knocked my socks off. Got it to re-read via interlibrary loan last year and it was even better reading now that I'm an old gal, with a lifetime's perspective.
[/Bibliologorrhea off] But actually, the stories may feel relevant to you. Which is probably why they occurred to me.
