Beschreibung

<p>Ewer's Rock, Virginia, 1917. Roy Young is restless, determined to leave this rural valley and make his mark on the twentieth century. Samantha Hatton, the minister's daughter, knows the town expects her and Roy to marry, but she hungers for more. The arrival of Ennis Duke - a mysterious wild boy tending to a lost herd of cattle up the mountain - will change everything.<br><br>Within a year, the lives of these three young people will be dramatically transformed. In the crucible of conflict, Roy and Ennis forge a fierce bond. Meanwhile, back in Virginia, Samantha's love and courage endure unthinkable sacrifice in a corner of the world fractured by violence.<br><br>With the spare, exquisite prose and the profound insight that made <i>The Yellow Birds</i> a landmark work of American fiction, Kevin Powers illuminates the savage, complex, and timeless bonds of loyalty, honour, and heroism. <i>Children of the Wild</i> captures what it means to be human in times of loss - and how, even in darkness, the light of friendship and love endures.</p>
