A Swift River Anthology by Dorothy Johnson
From their graves in Quabbin Park Cemetery, imagined residents... of the former towns of Dana, Enfield, Greenwich, and Prescott, Massachusetts, reminisce about their lives in the Lost Valley before their towns were flooded to create a drinking water reservoir for the city of Boston. In a remarkable feat of literary clairvoyance, Dorothy Johnson brings us the voices of the dead from the drowned Swift River Valley, conjuring up their lives and their vanished world-in epitaphs so vivid and so laconically graceful that for a moment each speaker stands before us, startling and true, says freelance journalist Anna Mundow. This is the author's homage to A Spoon River Anthology by Edgar Lee Masters. Illustrations and cover design by C. V. Smith.| SKU | Unavailable |
