No Man's Land

di John Vigna (Autore)

Arsenal Pulp Press, 2021

John Vigna’s first book of fiction, Bull Head, was published to critical acclaim in North America in 2012, and in France by Éditions Albin Michel in 2017. He is an Assistant Professor at the University of British Columbia’s School of Creative Writing. The story has always haunted me - was his life the result of being cursed/labelled when he was only one hour old? What role did my grandfather’s words play in the working out of my brother’s life? Did my brother have a chance at a better life for himself? What role did free will and predeterminism play in his life?” • Thematically and tonally, the book has a lot in common with Carmac McCarthy’s The Road (young protagonist on the cusp of adulthood seeking survival and meaning in a hostile world where they are often alone or without family); Hernan Diaz’s In the Distance (Coffee House), (a young man travels across America in search of his brother); and Clifford Jackman’s The Winter Family, about a band of ruthless outlaws that makes its way across America during and post-Civil War.
