Two-Step Devil

BuchGebunden
Englisch
Grove Atlanticerschienen am10.09.2024
"In Two-Step Devil, Quatro delivers a striking and formally inventive story of the unlikely relationship between two strangers on the margins of society and the shadowy forces that threaten their futures. In 2014 in Lookout Mountain, Alabama, where the Prophet-a seventy-year-old man who paints his visions-lives off the grid in a cabin near the Georgia border. While scrounging for materials at the local dump, the Prophet sees a car pull up to an abandoned gas station. In the back seat is a teenage girl with zip ties on her wrists, a girl he realizes he must rescue from her current life. Her name is Michael and the Prophet feels certain that she is his Big Fish, a messenger preordained by God to take his collection of end-times warnings to the White House. Moving through the worlds of the Prophet, the girl, and the devil who presides over both of them, Two-Step Devil is a propulsive, philosophical examination of fate and faith that dares to ask what salvation, if any, can be found in our modern world"--mehr
