<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The extraordinary author of "Cold Mountain" and "Thirteen Moons" returns with a dazzling novel of love and suspense set in a small North Carolina town in the late 1950s.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b><i>NEW YORK TIMES</i> BESTSELLER</b> <p/> Charles Frazier, the acclaimed author of <i>Cold Mountain </i>and<i> Thirteen Moons, </i> returns with a dazzling novel set in small-town North Carolina in the early 1960s. With his brilliant portrait of Luce, a young woman who inherits her murdered sister's troubled twins, Frazier has created his most memorable heroine. Before the children, Luce was content with the reimbursements of the rich Appalachian landscape, choosing to live apart from the small community around her. But the coming of the children changes everything, cracking open her solitary life in difficult, hopeful, dangerous ways. In a lean, tight narrative, <i>Nightwoods</i> resonates with the timelessness of a great work of art. <p/> <b>"Impossible to shake."<i>--Entertainment Weekly</i></b><br> <b><i> </i></b><br> <b>"Fantastic."<i>--The Washington Post</i></b><br> <b> </b><br> <b>"Astute and compassionate."<i>--The Boston Globe</i></b></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Incantatory prose . . . unexpected twists of plot . . . a look at the nature of good and evil and how those forces ebb and flow over time."<i>--The Atlanta Journal-Constitution</i><br> <i> </i><br> "<i>Nightwoods</i> propels forward at a suspenseful clip. . . .
