The Garden of Last Days

Andres Dubus III made a name for himself with National Book Award finalist “House of Sand and Fog,” a devastating novel about ordinary people struggling with extraordinary situations. The film, starring Ben Kingsley, received three Oscar nominations. Dubus’ beautiful memoir, “Townie,” reached number four on the New York Times bestseller list. Our reviewer, Sally Bissell, discusses his similarly disturbing novel from 2008, “The Garden of Last Days.”
