The Bad Angel Brothers

Autor Paul Theroux
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 sep 2023

A deliciously dark, atmospheric novel about family and brotherhood from one of America's most distinctive writers

There's sibling rivalry and then there's the relationship of brothers Cal and Frank Belanger.

Enemies since childhood, the small town of Littleford just isn't big enough to hold them both. So, Cal strikes out for the world's wild places - a gifted geologist in search of gold and other precious minerals - leaving Frank to develop a successful career as the town's lawyer, fixer and local hero.

But when Cal, newly rich and newlywed, returns to the town of his birth, Frank gives him the opposite of a brotherly welcome, leading to a series of betrayals and reprisals culminating in the ultimate plan: murder.

A riveting tale of adventure, betrayal and the true cost of family bonds, The Bad Angel Brothers is a remarkable novel from one of American's most distinctive writers.

'Laden with jealousy, betrayal and a mythic lust for vengeance' The New York Times

'One of the most accomplished and worldly-wise writers of his generation' The Times

Recenzii

"The fierce rivalry between two siblings comes laden with jealousy, betrayal and an almost mythic lust for vengeance...Theroux is at his masterly best." — The New York Times Book Review
"[A] deeply unsettling tale of the sibling rivalry from hell....Long known for creating complex, deeply troubled characters, Theroux strikes again here.” — Booklist
“Theroux’s work is like no one else’s.”  — Francine Prose, New York Times Book Review
"Theroux draws on his travel writing prowess to follow his protagonist from the Mexican border to the chill of Alaska, from Central Africa to Colombia, uncovering a devastating threat that culminates in the ultimate plan for murder....a chilling psychological novel."
Honolulu Magazine
“This novel is one for the ages.”  — Bookreporter.com
