Synopsis

Highway Blue Tells The Story Of Anne-marie And Cal: The Story Of Their Brief Marriage, And Also Of Their Long Estrangement. And When A Violent Ambush Hurls The Two Of Them Cross-country On The Road, It Becomes The Story Of Their Search For Salvation. On Their Ill-at-ease Odyssey Along The Darker Seams Of The Country--from Sweaty Motel Rooms And Darkened Parking Lots, Encountering Other Whisky-soaked Souls Along The Way--anne-marie Sifts Through The Consequences Of Their Crime. But This Is Also The Story Of Love, In All Its Broken Forms, And How The Pursuit Of Love Is, In Turn, A Kind Of Redemption. Written In Spare, Blazing Prose, This Is A Novel Of Tragedy And Transcendence, Of Being Lost And Found Across A Shimmering, Almost Mythical American Landscape. With All The Power And Grace Of A Latter-day Denis Johnson, It Introduces An Electrifyingly Singular And Brilliant New Voice--
