Empire Falls Book Review. Empire falls by richard russo. In the small maine town of empire falls, replete with long defunct logging and textile mills, the whiting clan embarks on its inexorable demise.
5.0 out of 5 starsempire falls is one of russo's best and deserved its pulitzer. Overriding all of this is the depiction of a place that has good people, annoying ones, not so good to look at people and as. Winner of the pulitzer prize.
A reader can guess what is coming.
Prologue compared to the whiting mansion in town, the house charles beaumont whiting built a decade after his return to maine was modest. In the end, empire falls reveals our worst and best instincts, both our most appalling nightmares and our simplest hopes, with all the vision, grace and humanity of truly epic storytelling. It sadly took the events of the 1997 shooting for the people in carneal’s life to realize the enormity of the situation. Winner of the pulitzer prize.
