Interventions-A Novella & Three Stories
By Richard Russo,Featuring paintings by Kate Russo In what many perceive as a coldly relentless digital age, Pulitzer-prize winning author Richard Russo has teamed up with his daughter, artist Kate Russo, to create this tribute to the printed book. This handsome and inventive format—four volumes in a slipcase—combines the previously unpublished novella “Intervention” with three shorter works, two of which have not been published in book form. The four tales in Interventions crackle with Russo’s perceptive wit and unwavering compassion for the human condition; and each volume is paired with a small color print of a painting by Kate Russo.Inspired by the psychological landscape, these paintings explore the dark places of the characters’ psyches,that fear or injustice they obsess about. Printed in the United States on the finest sustainably harvested papers, the set is as much a joy to hold in the hand as it is to read. Kate's prints will be available to purchase. She is asking that payment be made in cash or checks. The price of a print is $45. RSVP IS SUGGESTED. |
