247 Pages. Book Description: Incest, madness & romance in the peat. Can an incestuous relationship ever be a happy one? Steeped in an unearthly and unsettling fenland landscape, relationships like that between Victor and his teen sister tend to mist up the perspectives of the `normal´. A decade on, Victor arrives in Paris to write a book about Kerouac. `All he possessed was his past, a writer´s greatest treasure. While not wanting to repudiate it, he aspired to the grandeur of loss.´ And it is there, in the security and oppressiveness of his childhood, in the lonely fens of Groningen, that Victor´s dark treasure lies – an oppresiveness symbolized by the alcoholism of his father – and of his incestuous love for his younger sister Lisa. From the no-man´s-land between sea and soil in north-east Holland comes an outstanding book from an author who promises to be one of the first European literary stars of the new century. Steamy, sensuous, atmospheric and ripe with longing and loneliness. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. About the Author: Nanne Tepper was born in 1962. He is Holland´s David Foster Wallace – the languid, half-Cobain/half-Cocker frontman of `The Diseases´. He, his music and his writing all come from a peculiar, other-worldly corner of the country around Groningen. Imagine if Morrissey had come from the Fenlands, and you´ll be half-way there. With his first book, he caused a sensation – it is widely regarded as the best debut this decade. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
