The mighty red [large print] : a novel / Louise Erdrich.

Erdrich, Louise, (author.).

Summary:

"In the Red River Valley of North Dakota, a collection of people revolve around a fraught wedding. Gary Geist, a terrified young man set to inherit two farms, is desperate to marry Kismet Poe, an impulsive goth who can't read her own future but seems to resolve his. Hugo, a gentle, homeschooled giant, is also in love with Kismet. He's determined to steal her and is eager to be a home-wrecker. Kismet's mother, Crystal, hauls sugar beets for Gary's family, and on her nightly runs, tunes in to the darkness of late-night radio, sees visions of guardian angels, and worries for the future. The Mighty Red is a novel of tender humor and hallucinatory mourning. It is about ordinary people who dream, grow up, endure tragedy, carry bitter secrets; men and women both complicated and contradictory, lonely and hopeful. As with every book from this great modern master, The Mighty Red is about our tattered bond with the earth, and about love in all its absurdity and splendor."-- Back cover.
