Summary
The Reader’s Circle remake of the season, The River Wife, is a perfect book club read with its themes of family secrets and star-crossed love.
From acclaimed novelist Jonis Agee, whom The New York Times Book Review called “a gifted poet of that dark lushness in the heart of the American landscape,” The River Wife is a sweeping, panoramic story that ranges from the New Madrid earthquake of 1811 through the Civil War to the bootlegging days of the 1930s.
