This is a major novel about America today, by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Empire Falls, about the twin dangers of innocence and cynicism, optimism or despair. Brídge ofSighs has all the glorious life that readers have come to expect from a Russo novel but with a tough nesy edge, a broader scope and a darker seam of glittering secréts. Two boys grow up in Thomaston, upstate New York, an old tannerytown where the river sometirnes runs red with chemicals and there are toxins not only in the river but running through their lives. One ofthem gets away - to Italy, where he becomes a painter. The other stays to marry Sarah, also an artist, to run a small empire of convenience stores and to tell their story. He's a good man, if a touch circumscribed, but Louis C. Lynch (aka Lucy) isn't always as reliable as he seems, and even he secretly longs for what he can't have...Bridge of Sighs is rich and un put downable, a great-hearted novel about family and unfulfilled longing, about race and com.munity, about how we see our world and how we interpret it.
