Title: Russo Shines
Product review: Mr. Russo continues to rise on my personal list of favorite authors. This is the story of William Henry (Hank) Devereaux, Jr a middle aged acting chairman of a college english department. Hank is having a midlife crisis. He is afraid (or excited) that his wife may be having an affair, his daughters marriage is falling apart, he's lusting after several women, he was stabbed in the nose by an irate co-worker, he may get people fired or be fired by the university and, oh yeah, he can't seem to pee. As always with Russo this is character driven, not plot driven, novel. It is set over a week time period when Hank's world delightfully unravels. Mr. Russo makes me laugh out loud. This is a fine piece of work.
