Tinkers
Paul HardingWinner of the Pulitzer Prize
American Library Association Notable Book
PEN / Robert Bingham Fellowship for Writers Award
°°°An old man lies dying. Propped up in his living room & surrounded by his children & grandchildren, George Washington Crosby drifts in & out of consciousness, back to the wonder & pain of his impoverished childhood in Maine. As the clock repairer’s time winds down, his memories intertwine with those of his father, an epileptic, itinerant peddler & his grandfather, a Methodist preacher beset by madness.
At once heartbreaking & life affirming, Tinkers is an elegiac meditation on love, loss, illness, faith, & the fierce beauty of nature.

“In Paul Harding’s stunning first novel, we find what readers, writers & reviewers live for.”— San Francisco Chronicle
“There are few perfect debut American novels. Walter Percy’s The Moviegoer & Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird come to mind. So does Marilynne Robinson's Housekeeping. To this list ought to be added Paul Harding’s devastating first book, Tinkers. . . . Harding has written a masterpiece.” — John Freeman, National Public Radio
“Tinkers is truly remarkable. It achieves & sustains a unique fusion of language & perception. Its fine touch plays over the textured richnesses of very modest lives, evoking again & again a frisson of deep recognition, a sense of primal encounter with the brilliant, elusive world of the senses. It confers on the reader the best privilege fiction can afford, the illusion of ghostly proximity to other human souls.” —Marilynne Robinson, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Home, Gilead, & Housekeeping.
“[Tinkers is] a novel that you’ll want to savor. . . . I found reading it to be an incredibly moving experience.” — Nancy Pearl.
