Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Richard Russo returns to North Bath, New York, revisiting beloved characters from his earlier work. The story centers on Sully, who, despite newfound good fortune, faces the grim prognosis from a VA cardiologist that he has only a year or two to live. He struggles to keep this news from those closest to him: Ruth, the married woman he has long loved; Rub Squeers, his loyal but hapless friend; and his estranged son and grandson, with whom he carries a heavy burden of regret. The narrative also introduces Doug Raymer, the police chief preoccupied with his late wife's potential infidelity; Gus Moynihan, the mayor grappling with his own marital issues; and Carl Roebuck, whose history of failing upward may finally catch up with him. Additionally, Charice Bond offers a glimmer of hope for Raymer, while her brother Jerome presents a looming threat. Filled with humor, heart, and the complexities of human relationships, this work showcases Russo's signature style, blending warmth and authenticity in a richly drawn community. It stands as a testament to his storytelling prowess and remains a poignant exploration of life's challenges and connections.
