Description
It was a hellish summer, and the air smelled of burning children. With one of the most gripping opening sentences in contemporary literature, Robert McCammon begins a visionary masterpiece about survival, redemption and the astonishing transformations love can bring. Going South follows a desperate man through a desperate landscape in a Gothic picaresque novel combining a harsh plot with black humour. Dan Lambert, burdened by memories and poisoned by Agent Orange, kills a man in a single moment of fear and rage, changing his life forever. Pursued by both the police and bounty hunters, Dan flees south towards the backwaters of Louisiana. In the swamp country, he meets Arden Halliday, a young woman carrying an unmistakable burden from her past and searching for a legendary miracle healer known as the Shining Girl. Bound by a loyalty stronger than love, Dan and Arden embark on a journey of relentless tension and disturbing discoveries, travelling along dark and twisted paths into the mysterious depths of the human heart. The contents are in Czech.
