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. Mosher's kingdom is timeless. It existed well before man, has survived his spell upon it, and will do so long after the curtain has fallen (Washington Post Book World).<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Superb storytelling, a delightful novel filled with humor and grace." --Alice Hoffman <p/>Wields the power to pull the reader like a magnet into its world and will not let go until the story is told. --NEW ORLEANS TIMES-PICAYUNE <p/>Howard Frank Mosher is, for my money, the most natural storyteller around . . . THE FALL OF THE YEAR, which is impossible to read without recalling the best tales of Washington Irving and Mark Twain, is no exception. --Richard Russo<br>
