Description
Daniel Woodrell has labeled his lyrically written, gritty, and atmospheric fiction set in his native home, the rural Ozarks, as "country noir" for good reasons. His novels offer bleak portraits of desperate and impoverished characters living on the outskirts of society and driven to desperate, often criminal, measures to survive. Through crisp, precise, and elegant prose Woodrell creates vivid, poetic, and authentic portraits of a world that is savagely violent, brutally unforgiving, and at times hauntingly beautiful.
