An Indie Next Title ⢠An Indies Introduce Title ⢠Long-listed for the 2015 Center for Fiction First Novel Prize
âImpressive . . . [A] tough, honest novel by a surprisingly wise young writer.â â Washington Post
Â
âA complex and powerful storyâput Black River on the must-read list.â â Seattle Times
Â
Wes Carver returns to his hometownâBlack River, Montanaâwith two things: his wifeâs ashes and a letter from the parole board. The convict who once held him hostage during a prison riot is up for release. For years, Wes earned his living as a corrections officer and found his joy playing the fiddle. But the riot shook Wesâs faith and robbed him of his music; now he must decide if his attacker should walk free. With âlovely rhythms, spare language, tenderness, and flashes of rageâ (Los Angeles Review of Books), S. M. Hulse shows us the heart and darkness of an American town, and one manâs struggle to find forgiveness in the wake of evil.
Â
âArtful . . . Hulse evokes the Montana landscape in lyrical, vivid prose.â â Boston Globe
Â
âHulse believes that grace happens in a look between two people, or a moment of holding back. A powerful elegy.â â GuardianÂ
