Description
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. Both the twelve-year-old and his father
become fugitives, forced to run from Coos County—to Boston, to southern
Vermont, to Toronto—pursued by the implacable constable. Their lone
protector is a fiercely libertarian logger, once a river driver, who
befriends them. In a story spanning five decades, Last Night in Twisted
River 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.” What further distinguishes Last Night in Twisted River
is the author’s unmistakable voice—the inimitable voice of an accomplished
storyteller.
