Pat Conroy’s classic novel stings with honesty and resounds with drama. Spanning forty years, it’s the story of turbulent Tom Wingo, his gifted and troubled twin sister, Savannah, and their struggle to triumph over the dark and tragic legacy of the extraordinary family into which they were born. Filled with the vanishing beauty of the South Carolina Low Country as well as the dusty glitter of New York City, showcases an American original at his very best. “This is a powerful book. . . . [Pat] Conroy is a master of language.” “A big, sprawling saga of a novel . . . the kind you can hole up with and spend some days with and put down feeling that you’ve emerged from a terrible, wonderful spell.” “A literary gem . . . is in the best tradition of novel writing. It is an engrossing story of unforgettable characters.” “A masterpiece.” “Brilliant.”
