Reviews
"Historical fiction that resonates with our time makes for a great reading experience--especially when it's done in the literary style of rich, careful language; realistic evocation of place; and deep exploration into character. William Kent Krueger has delivered just this combination in his latest standalone novel, The River We Remember." --New York Journal of Books
"Absorbing. . . combines nostalgic settings with depictions of the lingering hardships and traumas of war and the home front . . . in the decade after WWII." --Booklist (starred review)
"Tender, evocative." --Shelf Awareness
"The River We Remember may be [Krueger's] magnum opus...deeply moving...intimate and epic in equal measure." --Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

"Krueger's graceful prose coupled with his ability to delve deep into his characters' inner lives makes The River We Remember a stand-out in a career of excellent novels...[The novel] ebbs and flows to a stunning ending that also is life affirming.
