Description
Old King A Novel by Maxim Loskutoff is set in a remote Montana town in 1976, where a series of strange and menacing events unfold. Duane Oshun takes a job as a logger and builds a cabin near a reclusive neighbor, Ted Kaczynski, who becomes increasingly obsessed with the valley's old-growth forest. As tensions rise, Kaczynski's violent grievances against modern society threaten the lives of those around him. The novel explores themes of environmentalism, technology's impact on American life, and a new kind of violence that can emerge in unexpected ways. Spanning two decades, Old King A Novel is a gripping tale of suspense and social commentary. With its sweeping narrative and inventive storytelling, this book establishes Maxim Loskutoff as a talented author of the American west.
