HTML:<p><b>“Nuanced and moving . . . [a] story about the indestructible bonds of family.”—<i>The New York Times</i></b><br /> From John Burnham Schwartz, one of the our most compelling and compassionate writers, comes a riveting novel about the complex, fierce, ultimately inspiring resilience of families in the face of life’s most difficult and unexpected challenges. Twelve years after a tragic accident and a cover-up that led to prison time, Dwight Arno, at fifty, is a man who has started over without exactly moving on. Living alone in California, Dwight manages a sporting goods store and dates a woman to whom he hasn’t revealed the truth about his past. Then Sam, Dwight’s estranged college-age son, shows up without warning, fleeing a devastating incident in his own life. As the two men are forced to confront their similar natures and their half-buried hopes for connection, they must also search for redemption in their attempts to rewrite, outrun, or eradicate the past.<br /> <b> </b><br /> <b>Praise for <i>Northwest Corner</i></b><br /> “A great American novel.”<b>—Abraham Verghese</b><br />  <br /> “One of the most emotionally commanding novels of the year."<b>—NPR</b><br />  <br /> “Exhilarating . . . In Schwartz’s hands, the narrative unfolds delicately, each chapter a puzzle piece that fits seamlessly into the whole. [Grade:] A.”<i><b>—Entertainment Weekly</b></i><br /> <i> </i><br /> “A compelling tale of a family . . . finding their way back together again.”<i><b>—The Christian Science Monitor</b></i><br /> <i> </i><br /> “Stark and deeply affecting . . . Readers will grow to care deeply about whether and how [the characters’] lives can be redeemed.”<b><i>—Kirkus Reviews</i> (starred review)<br />  </b><br /> “The masterful <i>Northwest Corner</i> is that finest of things—a moral novel about mortal events.”<b>—Dennis Lehane</b></p>.
