So many great things to say about this book, great writing, compelling story, captures and elucidates the look, feel and fortunes of a region, people and ultimately creates a portrait of humanity and its time on the planet. So sorry won’t be able to hear and learn more from Russell Banks but what he did write is iconic and continues to resonate.

There are many great things to say about this book but just to mention a couple: the descriptions of setting are so well written it is like listening to a virtuoso playing a show piece. Also, the descriptions and discussion of the psychologies of the characters are brilliantly insightful and thought provoking.
