Gods of Howl Mountain 評價

網友滿意度：



不論是在學生時期或開始工作後

我對語言一直都有難以言喻的嚮往~~

自英文的從國中啟蒙

能夠用其他語言的邏輯來思考事情

也是一件很有趣的一件事

跟一般人喜歡用吃吃喝喝出遊玩來打發時間

我更喜歡用書籍安靜的充實自己

所以特別跟大家推薦我目前在看的

Gods of Howl Mountain

非常好上手、條理分明

對於希望入門別太難的人很適合

而且這最大的成就感就是用新學的

語言查台中水晶店資料了XD

看自己key出之前完全不了解的文字或音

真的有滿滿的感動啊~~

希望推薦的這本書能夠讓大家都能

感受或得知識的喜悅!

一起讀書向前邁進吧!

商品訊息描述:

“A fresh, authentic, and eloquent new voice in American fiction.” - Robert Morgan, New York Times bestselling author of Gap Creek

In Gods of Howl Mountain, award-winning author Taylor Brown explores a world of folk healers, whiskey-runners, and dark family secrets in the high country of 1950s North Carolina.

Bootlegger Rory Docherty has returned home to the fabled mountain of his childhood - a misty wilderness that holds its secrets close and keeps the outside world at gunpoint. Slowed by a wooden leg and haunted by memories of the Korean War, Rory runs bootleg whiskey for a powerful mountain clan in a retro-fitted ’40 Ford coupe. Between deliveries to roadhouses, brothels, and private clients, he lives with his formidable grandmother, evades federal agents, and stokes the wrath of a rival runner.

In the mill town at the foot of the mountains - a hotbed of violence, moonshine, and the burgeoning sport of stock-car racing - Rory is bewitched by the mysterious daughter of a snake-handling preacher. His grandmother, Maybelline “Granny May” Docherty, opposes this match for her own reasons, believing that ＂some things are best left buried.＂ A folk healer whose powers are rumored to rival those of a wood witch, she concocts potions and cures for the people of the mountains while harboring an explosive secret about Rory’s mother - the truth behind her long confinement in a mental hospital, during which time she has not spoken one word. When Rory’s life is threatened, Granny must decide whether to reveal what she knows...or protect her only grandson from the past.

With gritty and atmospheric prose, Taylor Brown brings to life a perilous mountain and the family who rules it.
