An unforgettable tale of life, love and passion in a decaying mill-town in upstate New York.
Mohawk, New York, is one of those small towns that lie almost entirely on the wrong side of the tracks. Its citizens, too, have fallen on hard times. Dallas Younger, a star athlete in high school, now drifts from tavern to poker game, losing money, and, inevitably, another set of false teeth. His ex-wife, Anne, is stuck in a losing battle with her mother over the care of her sick father. And their son, Randall, is deliberately neglecting his school work–because in a place like Mohawk it doesn’t pay to be too smart.
In Mohawk, Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Richard Russo, explores these lives with profound compassion and flint-hard wit. Out of derailed ambitions and old loves, secret hatreds and communal myths, he has created a richly plotted, densely populated and wonderfully written novel that captures every nuance of America’s backyard.
'Mr Russo has an instinctive gift for capturing the rhythms of small-time life.'
The New York Times
'Russo writes with sensitivity and insight.'
