In a story spanning five decades, a twelve-year-old boy in New Hampshire mistakes the constable's girlfriend for a bear, leading to an unfortunate accident that forces the boy and his father to become fugitives pursued by the constable, with their only help coming from a fiercely libertarian logger, in a novel by a National Book Award-winning author.

`An emotional authority that recalls The Cider House Rules and a plot every bit as disquieting as that of his 1978 breakthrough bestseller, The World According to Garp ... It's a page-turner in the smartest possible sense, written with the historical authenticity and taut command of language that has established Irving as one of America's greatest living novelists' --GQ
`A master-class'
--Independent
`Nothing less than show-stopping' --Guardian
`Irving fans will relish this action-packed tale of father-and-son runaways'
--Sunday Times
`The most poetic and powerful of Irving's work to date' --Independent on Sunday
`Last Night in Twisted River is a big, old-fashioned novel in the best sense; Irving has created in painstaking, loving detail a whole and complete world, a record of momentous social changes, but, above all a testament to the enduring power of love and fiction'
--Observer
A breathtaking story of a father and a son in 20th-century North America from the award-winning author of A Prayer for Owen Meany.
