Book review: 'Bridge of Sighs'
Author: Richard Russo
Publisher: Knopf
Pages: 528
Price: $26.95
In a Nutshell: Pulitzer Prize-winner Russo has produced possibly his best book, an expansive but intriguing story of ordinary people in a small New York town, encompassing their entire lives, starting when the principals are 60 years old. Through flashbacks we learn of their earlier lives as they magnificently intertwine with others. This is a fiction masterpiece.
