Description
A dark and riveting vision of 1960s America, The Devil All the Time is a literary thriller that marries the intensity of Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers with the haunting atmosphere of Flannery O'Connor. Set against the backdrop of rural southern Ohio and West Virginia, this novel follows a cast of complex characters from the end of World War II to the 1960s. A tale of violence, sacrifice, and redemption, The Devil All the Time weaves together the lives of its characters in a narrative that is both astonishing and deeply moving. With its masterful storytelling, Donald Ray Pollock proves himself a compelling author in the grittiest American grain. This novel will leave readers unsettled and moved by its unflinching portrayal of human nature.
