Unaufhaltbar zieht Max seinen Bruder in einen Strudel aus Drogenexzessen, Pechsträhnen und Verzweiflung - wo soll diese Selbstzerstörung enden?

The Rebecca Riots, an uprising of oppressed peasantry against the burden of tollgates in west Wales, began in the summer of 1839.

The book's chapters each correspond to a line in Emily Dickinson's poem 'Finding is the first act.' The parallel to Dickinson's experience in the psychic wilderness d...
