Review

"The rhythms of a great estate, and the dynamics of a landowning family, are captured with Tolstoyan exactitude....[P]owerful and haunting, a major work." (starred review)

Annotation

Ethan Canin follows up his bestselling CARRY ME ACROSS THE WATER (2001) with an epic tale of the American dream, and the crimes committed in the name of power. Corey Sifter, the Scottish son of a plumber, comes under the tutelage of Liam Metarey, a coal baron. Through Liam's good graces, Corey moves up in the world, becomes a prominent newspaperman, and even marries into the moneyed Metarey family. When Liam begins to back a liberal U.S. senator for president, Corey becomes involved, and helps stave off a scandal when a young woman associated with the Senator is found drunk and frozen in a snow bank. Strains of ALL THE KING'S MEN and even THE GREAT GATSBY can be found in this powerful tale of loyalty, pride, and the sins of success.
