Produktinformationen zu „Heading Out to Wonderful (ePub)“
A "deliciously dark and dangerous" novel of love and tragedy in post-WWII Virginia by the #1 New York Times-bestselling author of A Reliable Wife (O, The Oprah Magazine).
It is the summer of 1948 when a handsome, charismatic stranger, Charlie Beale, recently back from the war in Europe, shows up in the town of Brownsburg, a sleepy village nestled in the Valley of Virginia. All he has with him are two suitcases: one contains his few possessions, including a fine set of butcher knives; the other is full of money. A lot of money. He's searching for a home. What he finds is love. And what happens then will haunt Brownsburg for generations.
Heading Out to Wonderful is a "tale of doomed love [that] resonates like a folk ballad, with the language of the Blue Ridge Mountains and its people giving this novel its soul... Like any good ballad, the narrative builds slowly to its violent climax, packs an emotional punch, and then haunts readers with its quintessentially American refrain" (Publishers Weekly).
