The Lonesome Trials of Johnny Riles

Buch

It's 1975. Johnny Riles leads a lonesome, whiskey-soaked existence on Colorado's high prairie.

Über den Autor

Gregory Hill grew up on the eastern edge of the American west, on a wheat farm near a tiny Colorado town called Joes. His relationship with that anarchic, windswept region in the heart of America continues to this day; and his novels are saturated in the area's wildlife, language, and gleeful insanity. Relying extensively on desperate characters in barren landscapes, his work is a relentlessly adventurous, unapologeticaly literate antidote to the myth of the wholesome, God-fearing heartland.
