Ash Davidson Knihy

Ash Davidson sa zameriava na hlboké skúmanie vzťahov medzi ľuďmi a prírodou, najmä v prostredí severnej Kalifornie. Jej písanie vyniká evokatívnymi opismi krajiny a starostlivým vykreslením postáv, ktoré sa potýkajú s komplexnými rodinnými dynamikami a dedičstvom. Davidson skúma témy identity, príslušnosti a napätia medzi divokým a civilizovaným svetom. Jej próza je cenená pre svoju lyrickú kvalitu a surovú emocionálnu úprimnosť.

*'Probably the best novel I'll read this year. It's about work and love and characters who ring true. By the time I was 50 pages in I couldn't put it down. Can't stop thinking about it' Stephen King* For generations, Rich Gundersen's family has made a living felling giant redwoods on California's rugged coast. It's treacherous work, and though his son, Chub, wants nothing more than to step into his father's boots, Rich longs for a bigger future for him. Colleen just wants a brother or sister for Chub, but she's losing hope. There is so much that she and Rich don't talk about these days - including her suspicions that there is something very wrong at the heart of the forest on which their community is built. When Rich is offered the opportunity to buy a plot of timber which borders Damnation Grove, he leaps at the chance - without telling Colleen. Soon the Gundersens find themselves on opposite sides of a battle that threatens to rip their town apart. Can they find a way to emerge from this together?
