About This Novel
"Duology of Fools" is a series of works by the famous American writer Richard Russo. The novel tells the story of the decline of the American Rust Belt and the people at the bottom struggling in the decadence. Through the daily depiction of the small town, the writer keenly captures the life dilemmas, family conflicts, emotional entanglements, fulfillment and evasion of moral obligations of contemporary people. The seemingly simple family love presents complex emotional tension in Russo's writing. "Sully the Fool" is the first part of the "Duology of Fools". With humorous, sophisticated and touching words, the writer describes the life of Bath Town, a simple town in northern New York: unhappy marriage life, estranged father-son relationship, ruthless capital erosion, hopeless people who stick to the bottom line of human nature... "Fool Remo" is the sequel to "Fool Sally". In "Remo the Fool", former enemies have reached reconciliation, emotional betrayals have been forgiven, and the little people still walk forward with courage, humor and warmth.
