Make My Bed in Hell
Synopsis
Aaron Platt has spent every day of his life breaking his back to scrape a living from the rocky, played-out fields of the Adirondack farm he inherited from his sadistic father. One winter morning, he follows footprints in the snow to his barn and discovers a man freezing to death in a horse stall. What unfolds between the two men, past and present, is a brisk, gritty depiction of crime and punishment. But their harrowing story is more than that, exposing the shocking hypocrisy of the people who live in the nearby, bucolic town--a legacy of hatred that reaches back to the violent founding of the nation. This literary masterpiece includes a new Afterword by Jack Mearns, author of John Sanford: An Annotated Bibliography.
