Description

A searingly vivid novel that depicts the torments of adolescence in a sensual, carnal way. Heatwave is an unsettling and evocative tale that examines our darkest impulses. Set against the backdrop of a sweltering summer holiday, the story follows Leonard as he grapples with his own demons. A moment of horror sets off a chain of events that exposes the darker aspects of human nature. Translated by Sam Taylor, this novel is a profound meditation on the mystery of evil and our deadly urges. With its vivid prose and unflinching portrayal of adolescent turmoil, Heatwave is a thought-provoking read that will linger long after the final page has been turned.
