Plainsong, set in Kent Haruf's fictional Holt County, Colorado, is an unforgettable classic, exploring the grace and hope of every human life, and our boundless capacity for love. ‘So delicate and lovely that it has the power to exalt the reader’ The New York TimesTom Guthrie is struggling to bring up his two young sons alone and, in the same town, school girl Victoria Roubideaux is pregnant and homeless. Brothers Harold and Raymond McPheron – gentle, solitary, gruff and unpolished – agree to take Victoria in, unaware that their lives will change forever. A novel of haunting beauty from one of America's greatest writers, published 25 years ago this year, Plainsong is an essential read from the Picador Collection, a curated list of era-defining modern classics.
