FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In Argus, North Dakota, a fraught wedding is taking place.Gary Geist, a terrified young man set to inherit two farms, is desperate to marry Kismet Poe. Gary thinks Kismet is the answer to all of his problems; Kismet cant even imagine her future, let alone the kind of future Gary might offer. During a clumsy proposal, Kismet misses her chance to say no and so the die is cast.Hugo has been in love with Kismet for years. He has been her friend, confidante and occasionally her lover - and now she is marrying Gary, Hugo is determined to steal her back.Meanwhile Kismets mother, Crystal, hauls sugar beets for Garys family, and on her nightly truck drives along the highway from the farm to the factories, she tunes into the darkness of late-night radio, sees visions of guardian angels, and worries for the future - both her daughters and her own.Starkly beautiful like the landscape it inhabits, it is about ordinary people who dream, grow up, fall in love, struggle, endure tragedy, carry bitter secrets. And as with every book this great modern master writes, The Mighty Red is about our tattered bond with the earth, and about love in all of its absurdity and splendour.A new novel by Louise Erdrich is a major literary event; gorgeous and heartrending, The Mighty Red is a triumph.
