Bienvenido a Empire Falls, Maine, un antiguo centro industrial ahora sumido en la decadencia y el desempleo. Miles Roby, el gerente del Empire Grill, nos guía a través de este universo de pequeñas miserias donde todos se conocen y donde la señora Whiting, encarnación tiránica de un pasado próspero, reina con mano de hierro. Rodeado de personajes tan divertidos como conmovedores, Miles se debate entre su futura exesposa, su hija adolescente y un padre impredecible, mientras el descubrimiento de oscuros secretos familiares amenaza con cambiar su vida para siempre. Esta magistral novela de Richard Russo, ganadora del Premio Pulitzer en 2002, es una crónica agridulce de la clase obrera estadounidense. Con un estilo detallista y una profunda sensibilidad psicológica, el autor transforma la cotidianidad de un pueblo en declive en una leyenda literaria, ofreciendo un retrato humano, humorístico y melancólico de la América contemporánea.
