Description
Set against the unforgiving backdrop of a failed state, Marcel Theroux's Far North is a haunting and hopeful novel that explores the human condition in the face of adversity.
In this bleak yet beautiful world, Makepeace patrols the ruins of a dying city, struggling to maintain order among its unruly inhabitants. But when a mysterious refugee arrives from the vast emptiness of forest, Makepeace's journey takes an unexpected turn, leading him to confront the dark secrets and mysteries of this frozen landscape.
As Makepeace navigates this unforgiving world, he must confront his own assumptions about humanity's place in the natural world. With its spare yet evocative prose, Far North is a powerful exploration of our relationship with the environment, and the resilience of human spirit in the face of adversity.
