Chances Are . . . by Richard Russo Book Summary

A NATIONAL BESTSELLER from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Empire Falls • Three men in their late sixties—old friends from college, each with a secret—come together on Martha’s Vineyard in this “gripping, wise, and wonderful summer treat.” (The Boston Globe).

“A cascade of charm…. Russo is an undeniably endearing writer, and chances are this story will draw you back to the most consequential moments in your own life.” —The Washington Post

One beautiful September day, three men in their late sixties convene on Martha's Vineyard, friends ever since meeting in college in the sixties. They couldn't have been more different then, or even today—Lincoln's a commercial real estate broker, Teddy a tiny-press publisher, and Mickey is a musician beyond his rockin' age. But each man holds his own secrets, in addition to the monumental mystery that none of them has ever stopped puzzling over since a Memorial Day weekend right here on the Vineyard in 1971. Now, forty-five years later, three lives and that of a significant other are put on display while the distant past confounds the present in a relentless squall of surprise and discovery. Shot through with Russo's trademark comedy and humanity, Chances Are . . . introduces a new level of suspense and menace that will quicken the reader's heartbeat throughout this absorbing saga.

Dividing the Book in Half. I’d give the first half of the book 4 stars, but the second half 2 stars. Way too much exposition and repetition.

Chances Are. This one by Richard Russo felt way too contrived. The characters were stereotypical. I found the unnecessary and frequent, one-way political jabs annoying. Russo seems preachy here. Not worth the price.

Classic Russo. Whatever you’ve always loved about Russo is all right here.

Chances are. Excellent.

Chances Are. One of the most boring books I’ve ever read.

I Wait for Every Book. Thank you, Mr. Russo.
