Equal parts vintage crime novel and Southern Gothic, full of aching ambivalence and hard compromises, and rounded off by bad faith and bad choices, One Foot in Eden is a veritable garden of earthly disquiet." -Los Angeles Times
Will Alexander is the sheriff in a small town in southern Appalachia, and he knows that the local thug Holland Winchester has been murdered. The only thing is the sheriff can find neither the body nor someone to attest to the killing. Simply, almost elementally told through the voices of the sheriff, a local farmer, his beautiful wife, their son, and the sheriff's deputy, One Foot in Eden signals the bellwether arrival of Ron Rash, one the most mature and distinctive voices in Southern literature.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Picador USAISBN-13:9780312423056ISBN-10:312423055UPC:9780312423056Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Mystery & Detective, Literary, CrimeAward:2003 Independent Publisher Book Awards Finalist - General Fiction AwardSize:8.26 x 5.50 x 0.59 inchesWeight:0.4497Product ID:SCNSG1KTSJ
