Russell Banks died on Sunday at his home in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. He was 82.
His literary agent, Ellen Levine, said the cause was cancer.
Two of his novels, “Continental Drift” (1985) and “Cloudsplitter” (1998), were finalists for the Pulitzer Prize for fiction.
I read both.
RIP Russell Banks

RIP Russell Banks
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
