ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Richard Russo's "Everybody's Fool" intricately portrays life in North Bath, a town grappling with economic decline and overshadowed by its affluent neighbor. The story revolves around a cast of characters dealing with aging, relationships, and personal struggles.

 

Chief of Police Raymer is haunted by past judgments and seeks to redefine himself, while Sully, now in his twilight years, reflects on past misdeeds. The presence of deceased characters like Miss Beryl and Becka highlights the enduring power of legacy, and the theme of complicity emerges as characters grapple with their roles in past events. The novel explores themes of legacy and the judgements of others.

Lamar Richardson
