Description

Darke by Rick Gekoski is a powerful exploration of one man's struggle to come to terms with his own mortality. With scalding prose and ruthless intelligence, the author delves into the darkest corners of the human experience, confronting us with some of our most uncomfortable questions about how we choose to live and die. As Dr Darke's carefully managed darkness begins to crack, he is forced to confront the tender, bruised filaments of love for his daughter and grandson. This unflinching portrayal of a man on the brink of despair is both deeply moving and unforgettably vivid. Through its uncompromising lens, Darke shines a light on the complexities of human existence, leaving readers with a lasting impression of the author's masterful storytelling.
