(eng) Richard Russo is the author of Mohawk, Empire Falls, etc. He is not the same author as either Richard Anthony Russo [co-editor of the Yellow Silk anthologies with Lily Pond, and editor of Dreams Are Wiser Than Men] or the science fiction writer, Richard Paul Russo [the "Carlucci" novels, "Singleton" novels, etc.]. Please do not combine these authors; thank you.
