About this ebook
The stories of Where the Rivers Flow North are “superior work, rich in texture and character,” says the Wall Street Journal; “the novella is brilliantly done.” That novella, the title story of the collection, was also made into a feature film starring Rip Torn and Michael J. Fox. These six stories, available again in this new edition, continue Mosher’s career-long exploration of Kingdom County, Vermont. “Within the borders of his fictional kingdom,” the Providence Journal has noted, “Mosher has created mountains and rivers, timber forests and crossroads villages, history and language. And he has peopled the landscape with some of the truest, most memorable characters in contemporary literature.”

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Recommend reading this collection of Howard Frank Mosher stories set in rural northern Vermont near the Canadian border. Six stories in rugged New England hills early in the twentieth century tell of challenged lives struggling to live in logged-off and worn-out lands. Mosher's novella is crowning tale contrasting romantic and often humorous themes with darker, tragic elements. The author's blended attention to outdoor settings, activities, along with his distinctive character development delivers a lasting and powerful narrative. One of my favorites; the movie adaptation is also excellent. (lj)
