Carver has his stories set in such ambiguous places that they could be anywhere in America. Is Berry the same?
My idea of PNW literature is a kind of writing that takes landscape and nature and setting a lot more seriously.
Kinda like Robinson Jeffers.

The Curve of Time by M. Wylie Blanchet is really nice, though set up in the inlets of British Columbia. Sometimes a Great Notion by Ken Kesey is good too, and impressed me with how his descriptions of nature properly conveyed the immense confluence of it.

Disclaimer: not from the PNW and have never been there.
