About Bridge of Sighs by Richard Russo
Published in 2007, Richard Russo’s Bridge of Sighs is a literary novel set in Thomaston, an upstate New York town. Louis Charles “Lucy” Lynch has spent his life there, and as he writes a history of his hometown and family, he hopes to make sense of old questions—including the nature of his friendship with a celebrated painter who left town.
Lucy and his wife, Sarah, are preparing for a trip to Italy to visit that longtime friend. Their story is interwoven with the perspective of Noonan, another native of Thomaston who left years earlier. Readers drawn to family stories, small-town life, and novels that follow connected lives across different experiences may find this a rewarding choice.
