In my mind a truly American book: violence, rape, guns and nature.
That said this book is what writing should be like. It's like walking on wobbly ground, you're never sure of your footing because you're plunged in a world unknown to you where every step is advancing towards unforseable consequences.

Although the plot of this novel is located a few hundred miles from where I live it draws me in a completely different world both geographically and mentally leaving me fragile and feeling somehow inadequate.

That's what every real novel should achieve.
