Томас Сэвидж0.0 The Corner of Rife and Pacific comes from deep within the American grain. In this, his thirteenth novel, Thomas Savage returns to Grayling, Montana, at the beginning of the century, to the tragic Indians, to the great ranchers and citizens of a gentler time who already feel the promise—and the threat—of the future. There is Zack Metlen, whose family has, in the course of a single generation, tumbled from prosperity, from twenty thousand acres, expensive motor cars, and jewels, to near indigence.
And above all, there is Anne Chapman, whose beauty is such that a man might never see its like again. Hers is a beauty that confounds and inspires. But more: She has the courage of her blood and defends what she loves by absolutely flouting convention at a time when convention is a dangerous power to flout.
