Αυτό είναι το βιβλίο του Μπόμπι Γουέστερν, ενός ιδιοφυούς φυσικού πού εγκατέλειψε μια πολλά υποσχόμενη καριέρα κι έγινε δύτης διάσωσης. Τον στοιχειώνει διαρκώς η εικόνα του πεθαμένου πατέρα του (μέλους της ομάδας πού εφηύρε την ατομική βόμβα), ενώ μεγάλη οδύνη τού προκαλεί και η σκέψη της αδελφής του Αλίσια. Όταν βουτά για να εντοπίσει ένα αεροπλάνο πού έπεσε στη θάλασσα και τούς δέκα επιβάτες του, βρίσκει μόνο εννιά.

Εκδότης: GUTENBERG
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0920-1979

Ο Μπάλαρντ, φτωχός αγρότης, χάνει το σπίτι και τη γη του, και μαζί τον όποιο σύνδεσμο είχε με τους ανθρώπους γύρω του. Χωρίς εφόδια, χωρίς δουλειά, χωρίς χρήματα, περιφέρεται, στα δάση. Διαπράττει απλές κλοπές αλλά και εγκλήματα, μη διστάζοντας ακόμα και πανανθρώπινα ταμπού να παραβιάσει. Με φόντο το άγριο τοπίο του Τενεσί, ο αναγνώστης τον παρακολουθεί σ' αυτόν τον κατήφορο, ενώ η αφήγηση διακόπτεται από προφορικές μαρτυρίες κατοίκων της περιοχής, που προσπαθούν να βρουν μια αιτία για τις πράξεις του, αλλά δείχνουν και όλη τη σκληρότητά τ...

Through the hostile landscape of the Texas-Mexico border wanders the Kid, a fourteen year-old Tennessean who is quickly swept up in the relentless tide of blood. But the apparent chaos is not without its order: while Americans ...
