About this product

Product Information

E. Annie Proulx's Accordion Crimesis a masterpiece of storytelling that spans a century and a continent. Proulx brings the immigrant experience in America to life through the eyes of the descendants of Mexicans, Poles, Africans, Irish-Scots, Franco-Canadians and many others, all linked by their successive ownership of a simple green accordion. The music they make is their last link with the past -- voice for their fantasies, sorrows and exuberance. Proulx's prodigious knowledge, unforgettable characters and radiant language make Accordion Crimesa stunning novel, exhilarating in its scope and originality.

An interesting read.
I bought this book for a class I was taking. It isn't a book I would have read on my own, but I liked it. There are many character in the book and it can get a bit depressing at times, but the book is well written and good overall.
