Last Night in Twisted River - John Irving
Genre : Drama
In 1954, in the cookhouse of a logging and sawmill settlement in northern New Hampshire, an anxious twelve-year-old boy mistakes the local constable's girlfriend for a bear. Forced to flee from the accident, the twelve-year-old and his father become fugitives, on the run pursued by the constable, and the demons inside themselves.
Their protector is a fiercely libertarian logger, who befriends them. They are also befriended by many women, in a story spanning five decades. Last Night in Twisted River is John Irving's twelfth novel depicts the recent half-century in the United States as "a living replica of Coos County, where lethal hatreds were generally permitted to run their course." Last Night in Twisted River is written with the historical authenticity and emotional authority of The Cider House Rules and A Prayer for Owen Meany. It is also as violent and disturbing a story as John Irving's breakthrough bestseller, The World According to Garp.
What further distinguishes Last Night in Twisted River is the author's unmistakable voice, the voice of an accomplished storyteller. Near the end of this moving novel, John Irving writes: "We don't always have a choice how we get to know one another. Sometimes, people fall into our lives cleanly - as if out of the sky, or as if there were a direct flight from Heaven to Earth - the same sudden way we lose people, who once seemed they would always be part of our lives."
