This was a great book. An enormous story. Completely fascinating piece of historical fiction. I feel like I've been reading it forever, but it's not a book I could rush through. The history and story of John Brown, as told by his son, Owen, is just too big for that. I'll definitely seek out more works by Russell Banks. His storytelling is mesmerizing. There is real pleasure in his writing.
