Product Description
In The Road Past Altamont, Roy daringly returns to the same characters and the nearly identical timespan of Street of Riches, but by looking at her subjects with an entirely fresh vision, she creates a wholly new and deeply personal story of young Christine’s decision to become a writer.
This haunting and poignant tale weaves a delicate but substantial network of impressions, emotions, and human relationships. --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.

"A consummate artist . . . Miss Roy communicates masterfully, with a beauty which is quite indescribable."—Toronto Star
(Toronto Star )"[This] book is quite outside the trend of modern fiction. . . . Yet, with a craft so adroit that it seems like instinct itself, it lights up many thoroughfares of the human heart. . . . Miss Roy takes the very pulse of wonder, love, aging, the dividends of solitude, the interweaving of generations."—New York Times Book Review
