Description
Milkman is a story of the way inaction can have enormous repercussions. In an unnamed city, a young woman stands out for the wrong reasons, and her life is turned upside down by a local paramilitary known as the milkman. As she tries to avoid him, rumors spread and the threat of violence lingers.
The novel explores the power of everyday actions and the consequences that can follow. With ferocious energy and sly, wicked humor, it establishes Anna Burns as a major voice in contemporary literature.
With its unique blend of humor and tension, Milkman is a gripping and thought-provoking read that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
