Synopsis
From the 2013 Orange Prize–winning author of May We Be Forgiven.
Only a work of such searing, meticulously controlled brilliance could provoke such a wide range of visceral responses. Here is the incredible story of an imprisoned pedophile who is drawn into an erotically charged correspondence with a nineteen-year-old suburban coed. As the two reveal—and revel in—their obsessive desires, Homes creates in The End of Alice a novel that is part romance, part horror story, at once unnerving and seductive.

Paperback. Etat : Good. "Superlative.undeniably shocking.superbly achieved by a writer who is a true artist." --Vogue From the prizewinning author of May We Be Forgiven, a dark and twisting novel following the correspondence between a jailed pedophile and a nineteen-year-old woman asking for his help with her own unthinkable obsessions--a controversial yet unnervingly compelling story. Only a work of such searing, meticulously controlled brilliance could provoke such a wide range of visceral responses. A dark, provocative, but utterly fascinating story, The End of Alice dives deep into the darkest corners of the human psyche. Following the correspondence between a seasoned pedophile imprisoned for horrific crimes and a nineteen-year-old following her own forbidden desires, the narrative blurs the line between confessor and accomplice. Through the voice of the jailed pedophile, the narrative weaves between his current state in prison, his memories of the horrifying acts he committed, and his letters of advice to the young woman with an obsessive appetite for prepubescent boys. With Homes' sharp prose and fearless exploration of morality, this novel is an utterly captivating unraveling of chilling layers of manipulation, obsession, and secrets. Acclaimed for its unflinching honesty and controversial themes, The End of Alice challenges all to confront the uncomfortable. N° de réf. du vendeur 00106258306
