Clara and Merritt, by the author of Madison House, winner of The Langum Prize for American Historical Fiction, unfolds amidst the violent strife between longshoremen and Teamsters in Seattle in the 1930s and '40s--and extends author Peter Donahue's remarkable investigation of Northwest history.
"Clara and Merritt is rich with details that give life to a little-known chapter of our past. Donahue draws us into a panoramic, dramatic saga." -- Molly Gloss, author of The Hearts of Horses.
Peter Donahue is also the author of the short story collection The Cornelius Arms. He is co-editor of the anthologies Reading Seattle: The City in Prose and Reading Portland: The City in Prose, and his "Retrospective Reviews" column on vintage Northwest literature appears in each issue of Columbia: The Magazine of Northwest History, published by the Washington State Historical Society.
