Richard Russo Visits Barnes and Noble in Fort Collins

All right book lovers, this is a summer book event not to miss. Tonight, Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Richard Russo will be appearing at Barnes and Noble at 4045 S. College Ave. to support his most recently published book, "Bridge of Sighs" and he will also be attending a book group club.

"Bridge of Sighs" is Russo's seventh published fictional book and is deemed by some critics as "classic Russo." While other critics, like Janet Maslin, find that there are striking similarities both geographically and socially between "Bridge of Sighs" and "Empire Falls."

"Empire Falls" is Russo's fifth book that won the Pulitzer Prize in 2002 for fiction writing.

So if you're planning on attending, get there early, bring your own copy of Russo's books and be ready to talk about the great American novel.
