Midlander

Description

In The Midlander, Booth Tarkington creates a set of distinctive characters whose behavior weaves a plot that feels inevitable. Despite the novel’s complexity, Tarkington’s lean prose here makes The Midlander both entertaining and rewarding reading. Tarkington published the first edition of The Midlander in 1924, wrapping up a set of three novels which he brought out in a single volume under the name Growth in 1927.
