Description
A man's life is turned upside down when his wife vanishes from their car at a gas station. He can't recall what happened next, but he knows she's gone.
John Haskell's American Purgatorio is a haunting and poignant novel that explores the heart of a country and a man. It's a journey into loss and redemption, a story about the human condition in a godless world.
This debut novel is both comic and achingly sad, a road trip through the complexities of life and relationships.
