Less predictable, however, is the second corpse which appears at each crime scene: that of a man resembling Emmett Till, the young Black boy lynched in the same town sixty-five years earlier.As a spate of copycat killings spreads across the country, what begins as a murder investigation soon becomes a journey into the soul of America’s violent past.From the author of James, shortlisted for the Booker Prize, and Erasure, adapted into the Oscar-winning film American Fiction.‘Everett has mastered the movement between unspeakable terror and knock out comedy.’ - The New York Times Σελίδες: 352, Διαστάσεις: 14.1x14.1cm
