About This Item
London: Transworld, 2001. 1st. h/b. Near fine, 1st edition, SIGNED, unclipped d/j, some sunning on edges.. 8vo: royal (250 x 170 / 10"" x 6_""). In the magnificent wilderness that is the Scottish Highlands, Aaron and Hugh have been friends for as long as they can remember, bound by a shared affinity for their surroundings and an increasing sense of alienation from the remote, close-knit community that is their home. But when a young woman - fleeing life in the city and a broken love affair - moves to the area, the ties that bind the boys are slowly, irrevocably stretched to near-breaking point. And as the strain on Aaron and Hugh's friendship builds, so the violence that is endemic in the land begins to infect them both. Driven to the very edge of reason, they turn on their world to vent their frustration and anger and hurt in the only way they know, embarking on a spree of quite horrific destruction... An extraordinarily powerful and critically acclaimed debut - Val McDermid called it 'brutal and beautiful' - to compare to such classics as Lord of the Flies by William Golding and Iain Banks' The Wasp Factory.
