Upon his passing in January 2017, Howard Frank Mosher was recognized as one of America's most acclaimed writers. His fiction set in the world of Vermont's fabled Northeast Kingdom chronicles the intertwining family histories of the natives, wanderers, outcasts, and others who settled in this ethereal place. In its obituary, The New York Times wrote, "Mr. Mosher's fictional Kingdom County, Vt., became his New England version of Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County." In Points North, completed just weeks before his death, Mosher presents a brilliant, lovingly-evoked collection of stories that center around the Kinneson family, ranging over decades of their history in the Kingdom. From a loquacious itinerant preacher who beguiles the reticent farmers and shopkeepers of a small New England town, to a proposed dam that threatens the river that Kinneson men have fished for generations, the scandalous secret of a romance and its violent consequences, and a young man's seemingly fruitless search for love-- Points North is a full-hearted, gently-comic, and beautifully-written last gift to the readers who treasure Howard Frank Mosher. 650 0 $a Families $z Vermont $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Country life $z Vermont $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Vermont $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Short stories. $2 lcgft 700 12 $a Mosher, Howard Frank. $t Friendship in Indiana. 700 12 $a Mosher, Howard Frank. $t Kingdom of heaven. 700 12 $a Mosher, Howard Frank. $t Lonely hearts. 700 12 $a Mosher, Howard Frank. $t Dispossessed. 700 12 $a Mosher, Howard Frank. $t What Pliny knew. 700 12 $a Mosher, Howard Frank. $t Songbirds of Vermont. 941 $a 9 952 $l LHPD057 $d 20201023164555.0 $m AF 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204091142.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110073034.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006113357.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180907030535.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20180515030338.0 952 $l VWPC964 $d 20180410015700.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20180321010333.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20180213010222.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B1C7B870108B11E8B110BB5597128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
