Estranged from his family, discharged from the Navy, and touched by a rising desperation, he sets out hitchhiking home to East Tennessee, where his father is slowly dying.On the road, separately, are Sudy and Bradshaw, brother and sister, and a one-armed con man named Roosterfish. All, in one way or another, have their pasts and futures embroiled with D.L. Harkness, a predator in all the ways there are. Hounded at every turn by scams, vigilantes, grievous loss, and unspeakable violence, Edgewater navigates the long road home, searching for a place that may be nothing but memory.Hailed as a seemingly effortless storyteller by the New York Times Book Review and a writer of striking talent by the Chicago Tribune, William Gay, with this long-awaited novel, secures his place alongside Faulkner, OConnor, and McCarthy as one of the greatest novelists in the Southern Gothic tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51971984097568,"sku":"NEW1945814888","price":13.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71_1WC6QYYL.jpg?v=1783788615","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-lost-country-1945814888","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
