Luncheon Book Discussion - Bridge of Sighs by Richard Russo

Luncheon book discussion on 'Bridge of Sighs' by Richard Russo.

Richard Russo's first book since the Pulitzer Prize-winning 'Empire Falls', Bridge of Sighs is a typically stunning portrait of three small town families struggling--like the town itself--to strike a balance between obsessively embracing their own history or shunning it entirely, with devastating consequences along both paths. Bridge of Sighs is pure Russo: funny, heartbreaking, and ringing completely true.
