Title
The Fall of the Year
Description
An intimate look at rural community life in the American-Canadian borderlands, centered around a Franco American priest, his stories, and his 3000+ page written history of the town in which the novel is set. Recent novel from the creator of the fictional Kingdom County, Vermont. Mosher is the author of several other novels that have been adapted into American films portraying rural northeastern Vermont. From Houghton Mifflin Harcourt: "Set in the beautiful mountains of Kingdom County, 'The Fall of the Year' is Howard Frank Mosher's brilliant autobiographical novel about love in all its forms, from friendship to the most passionate romance, in a place where family, community, vocation, and the natural world still matter profoundly. Here are the lively stories of the eccentric inhabitants of Kingdom County, including Louvia the Fortuneteller; Foster Boy Dufresne, the local bottle picker; and the daredevil tomboy Molly Murphy, who risks her life to fulfill her dream of running away with the Greatest Little Show on Earth."
