Reviews
"Rich in plot and dramatic tension . . . almost Joycean in its variety of rhetoric . . . the novel goes straight for the throat and the funnybone." - The New York Times "Astonishing . . . Kennedy's ambitious vision and soaring imaginative powers make this book one of the richest, most startling, and most satisfying novels of recent years." - The Philadelphia Inquirer "A beautifully sorrowful novel. Kennedy asks us again to confront the mystery of human behavior. And as he illuminates it, we share in one's man's struggle to understand his life." - The Washington Post "Kennedy's power is such that the reader will follow him almost anywhere, to the edge of tragedy and back again to redemption." - The Wall Street Journal, "A powerfully affecting work, abounding in humor and heartbreak." —Chicago Tribune Bookworld "A remarkable and most original novel." —Alison Lurie, "A powerfully affecting work, abounding in humor and heartbreak." -- Chicago Tribune Bookworld "A remarkable and most original novel." -- Alison Lurie, Praise for Ironweed "Rich in plot and dramatic tension...almost Joycean in its variety of rhetoric."-- The New York Times "Astonishing...Kennedy's ambitious vision and soaring imaginative powers make this book one of the richest, most startling, and most satisfying novels of recent years."-- The Philadelphia Inquirer "A beautifully sorrowful novel.

Winner of The Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction In this Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, the third in Kennedy's Albany cycle, Francis Phelan, ex-ballplayer, part-time gravedigger, and full-time bum with the gift of gab, has hit bottom. Years earlier he'd left Albany after he dropped his infant son accidentally, and the boy died. Now, in 1938, Francis is back in town, roaming the old familiar streets with his hobo pal, Helen, trying to make peace with the ghosts of the past and present., " W ith Ironweed , William Kennedy is making American literature."- The Washington Post Book World Francis Phelan has hit bottom. More than twenty years ago, the ex-ballplayer, part-time gravedigger, and full-time bum with the gift of gab left Albany after a tragic accident.
