Description
Nick by Michael Farris Smith is a rich and imaginative novel that breathes new life into a character known only from the periphery. Before he moved to West Egg, Nick Carraway was at the centre of a very different story - one taking place along the trenches and deep within the tunnels of World War I.
Floundering in the wake of the destruction he witnessed first-hand, Nick delays his return home, hoping to escape the questions he cannot answer about the horrors of war. Instead, he embarks on a transcontinental redemptive journey that takes him from a whirlwind Paris romance to the dizzying frenzy of New Orleans.
Charged with enough alcohol, heartbreak, and profound yearning to transfix even the most discerning reader, Nick reveals the man behind the narrator who has captivated readers for decades. This is an epic portrait of a truly singular era, a sweeping and romantic story of self-discovery that will leave you spellbound.
