Novel Review- The Reserve- Russell Banks

Title: The Reserve

Genre: Novel

Grade: A-

Notable People: Russell Banks

Review: This is classically dark Banks novel that takes place in the Adirondacks in the 1930’s. A little hard to follow the back and forth in time- but a compelling story that mixes in historical characters and events- mostly set against the back drop of the Depression and the impending war with Germany. A book I found it hard to put down.
