The Lost Song by Steve Effingham
As human beings attempt to elude the memory of their own suffering a Lost Song lingers below the surface of our collective unconscious echoing all we seek to escape. The thread of our existence refuses to be broken. For good or ill the past is ever present. Witnessing the lives of famous New Orleans Jazzman, Kid Auger and defrocked German Anthropologist Dr. Valentin Nieting in their desperate search for the Lost Song we explore the trauma of racial violence during the 1965 Watts Rebellion. From Berlin to New Orleans to Los Angeles, the novel carries us relentlessly towards a truth we may or may not desire. Searing realism combines with surrealistic dreamscapes and hilarious black humor to create a portrait of America that is both terrible to consider and essential if we are to ever reclaim the past and with it our sanity.| SKU | Unavailable |
