In Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer Prize-winning classic, The Bridge of San Luis Rey, the tragedy of a bridge collapse on July 20, 1714, leads Brother Juniper, a Franciscan monk, on a quest to understand the fate of five travelers who perish in the accident. Through his investigation, the novel delves into profound themes of divine intervention, love, and the human condition. Enriched by a foreword from Russell Banks and an afterword by Tappan Wilder, this edition offers insights into the book's literary significance and enduring impact.
