Review title: Not his Best, but Better than most any other...
Product review: Not as good, or as personal, as his novel "The Risk Pool", yet, even Russos' mid-quality work is better than almost everyone elses BEST writing. The interpersonal detail between the characters in his novels has never been equaled, in my opinion. Anyone who just recently discovered Russo, should defintely read ALL his novels. If they liked "Empire Falls" they will LOVE "Risk Pool", "Mohawk", "Nobodys' Fool". If you read Anne Tyler immediately after reading a Russo novel, you should be able to see that he writes better than the more popular and better known authors of the genre. I don't know, I could be wrong, but I doubt it.. :-) ;-) JT in NC
