Mohawk by Richard Russo

MOHAWK

by Richard Russo

"Immensely readable and sympathetic...Mr Russo has an instinctive gift for capturing the rhythms of small-town life" New York Times

From the back cover:

"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. 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 schoolwork - because in a place like Mohawk it doesn't pay to be too smart.

Mohawk chronicals over a dozen lives in a decaying leather town in upstate New York. It is a picture which is true for the whole world, and once viewed, will never be forgotten."
