Description
Vermonter Mona Duval loves the covered bridge beside her store. She loves local history and the rugged, rural nature of her home state. But when an ice storm collapses the bridge, she is bereft. Frank MacFarland, a seasonal resident who is beguiled by Mona, lends his political expertise to help rebuild the bridge. But they meet with powerful opposition. Tensions arise in the town, compounded by resistance to the soon-to-be-voted on Freedom to Marry bill. And then, unexpectedly, Mona's abusive ex-husband arrives. Wild Mountain is a page-turning, beautifully written novel about the love between Frank and Mona, the love of place, freedom to marry, and freedom from the past, by a writer whose prose has been compared to Alice Munro's.
Advance Praise
“...Wild Mountain has in it the heart and heat of a grown-up love affair, reminiscent of Frederick Busch's Harry and Catherine. The community storytelling with the quirks of small town living calls to mind Richard Russo's novels… I hope you enjoy the read as much as we do at our small press here in southern Vermont.” —Dede Cummings, publisher
“The places and characters are so vivid and real, I felt like I was there with them. I wanted to wrap myself up in the story like a coat.” —Kim Church
