Description

The Escapement by Lavie Tidhar is a mesmerizing novel that blends elements of Westerns, surrealism, and epic fantasy to create a unique dreamscape. In this captivating tale, a lone man embarks on a perilous quest through parallel worlds to rescue his son from a reality that threatens to consume him.

As he navigates the ever-shifting landscape, the Stranger encounters strange and fantastical versions of familiar things: cowboys gone lawless, giants made of stone, and downtrodden clowns. But with time running out, he must press on towards the Mountains of Darkness in search of a flower that holds the key to his son's rescue.

This is Lavie Tidhar's most compelling work to date, delivering a multicolored tapestry of dazzling imagery that explores the extraordinary lengths to which one will go for love. With its wildly original chronicle, The Escapement is an unforgettable read for fans of dark comedy and heartbreak.
