Opis

"After the gunsmoke cleared and the manhunt began, Bean promised himself he would never kill again..." Set where the Urban edge mingles with the Suburban sprawl, Kay Elle's The Illumination of Sorrow follows the story of Olive and Bean Downes, scrappy siblings forced to flee their home and hide deep in the city after an assassination gone wrong. Over the course of two weeks they'll encounter citizens just as colorful as the country they live in, complete with a bigoted fruit enthusiast, a corrupt concierge, a stingy gun peddler, and a Korean hitman named Elmo. It's an America where oranges are valued more than gold and homemade lip balm is as addictive as crack. It's an exploration of loyalty, glamourous nightclubs, and the well meaning pastors who inhabit them. It's a raw, touching story about weird love, old wallets, and the humor that can be found in true meaning of sorrow.
