"Banks has taken on a profound theme, the ruinous and awful affliction of
violence that seems to live like a secret blood-disease handed down in men like
Wade. . . . He turns it into a living art that can bring recognition and
awe." — Los Angeles Book Review
"A masterwork of contemporary American fiction" (Chicago Tribune) from one
of the most acclaimed and important writers of our time
Wade Whitehouse is an improbable protagonist for a tragedy. A well-digger and
policeman in a bleak New Hampshire town, he is a former high-school star gone to
beer fat, a loner with a mean streak. It is a mark of Russell Banks's artistry
and understanding that Wade comes to loom in one's mind as a blue-collar
American Everyman afflicted by the dark secret of the macho tradition. Told by
his articulate, equally scarred younger brother, Wade's story becomes as
spellbinding and inexorable as a fuse burning its way to the dynamite.
