About Somebody's Fool by Richard Russo
Richard Russo returns to North Bath, in upstate New York, ten years after the death of Donald “Sully” Sullivan. As the town is annexed by wealthier Schuyler Springs, its residents face changes that unsettle family ties, old relationships, and the community’s sense of itself.
Sully’s son Peter weighs his father’s legacy against his own relationship with his son Thomas. Meanwhile, Charice Bond and former police chief Doug Raymer are brought back into one another’s orbit when a body is found in an abandoned hotel between the towns. Elsewhere, Ruth and her daughter Janey try to make sense of Janey’s daughter Tina and her growing fixation on Peter’s other son, Will.
Wry and attentive to the lives of a working-class community, Somebody’s Fool will suit readers interested in character-driven fiction, family relationships, small-town change, and the continuing North Bath stories begun in Nobody’s Fool and Everybody’s Fool.
