  Caribou Island by David Vann

  Price: £8.99    Add to Basket

  In his second novel, David Vann confirms his gift for grasping the elemental truths beneath tragic events. In an attempt to rebuild their crumbling marriage, Gary and Irene throw themselves into constructing a house on a small island in the desolate wilderness of Alaska. Like its predecessor, Legend of a Suicide, Vann’s novel is characterised by a menacing restraint; his writing always poised on the edge of something much darker.
