Synopsis
In 1954, a cook in a sawmill town is still reeling from the death of his young wife when his 12-year-old son makes a horrible mistake, incurring the inextinguishable wrath of a local constable. Father and son must go on the run, pursued over miles and years by the shadow of vengeance. Taking place over 50 years, LAST NIGHT IN TWISTED RIVER is a novel of great historical and emotional depth, a story of love, loss, and fatherhood. Beloved bestselling author John Irving (THE WORLD ACCORDING TO GARP, THE CIDER HOUSE RULES) returns to many of his familiar themes, but his sense of narrative and his wonderful prose render them fresh and gripping.

Length:	528 pages

Publisher's Note
In a story spanning five decades, a twelve-year-old boy in New Hampshire mistakes the constable's girlfriend for a bear, leading to an unfortunate accident that forces the boy and his father to become fugitives pursued by the constable, with their only help coming from a fiercely libertarian logger, in a novel by a National Book Award-winning author.
Industry reviews
"Irving's twelfth novel is full to bursting with story, character, and emotion...At once a moving portrait of a father-and-son relationship, a homage to a quintessentially American fortitude forged by treacherous work and scant wages, and a tribute to the bonds of friendship, it offers multiple, beautifully written set pieces on grief, love, food, and family." (starred review) (08/01/2009)

Last Night in Twisted River is a Signed First Edition by John Irving. On Sunday November 1st, John Irving made a rare speaking engagement in Los Angeles sponsored by Writer's Bloc. Prior to the discussion and reading, he signed a stack of books. This copy is signed in black ink on the title page. I do not want to break the spine trying to get a picture of his signature so there is no scan. Book is in Unread condition and has a cover which appears to be flawless. Number line reads 2 4 6 8 9 7 5 3 1. Book will be covered in brodart when it arrives. This is looking to be one of his best novels in years according to recent reviews and his signings are becoming an increasingly rare event.
