Spoonhandle

The New York Times bestseller and "classic island novel . . . is as relevant as ever . . . giving a new generation of readers the chance to feel the magic" (Portland Press Herald). "In the rugged companion of Faulkner, Caldwell and Steinbeck, Ruth Moore holds her own." —Saturday Review Spoonhandle, Ruth Moore's second novel following The Weir, spent fourteen weeks on The New York Times Bestseller List and was made into the movie Deep Waters. Spoonhandle is about Maine, brilliantly authentic, but the story told is universal, as old as time as it deals with the struggle between love and meanness of spirit, between human dignity and greed. "It is doubtful if any American writer has ever done a better job of communicating a people, their talk, their thoughts, their geography, and their way of life." —The New York Times "With her signature talents for color, atmosphere, dialogue and careful, convincing characterizations, Moore creates a delightfully intricate story that faithfully blends suspense, romance and contention with warmth, kindness and selfless humanity." —Bill Bushnell, Central Maine News
