Description
Matt's confession begins with a tangled mess of wrestling moves and ends with a trail of destruction. As he recounts his life story, fragments of history seep into the narrative - from the tumultuous years of Franz von Papen to the chaos of statue fires and bomb threats. Is Matt part of a larger, universal pattern of failure or is this just his own personal struggle? Septembers, Christopher Prendergast's debut novel, is a complex tale of upheaval, revolt and loss. The story unfolds as Matt pieces together a map of his mistakes, from the highs to the lows. With each episode, the reader is drawn into a world of turmoil and self-discovery. This is a novel that simmers with tension, its themes of failure and rebellion simmering just below the surface. A debut novel that promises much, Septembers is a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition.
