Book description
Beartooth is a novel about two survivalist brothers in desperate straits, who are lured into committing a crime in Yellowstone National Park. Thad and Hazen, long ago abandoned by their wayward mother, are drowning in medical bills and notices about back taxes. They live alone in an aging, timber house hand-built into the leeside of the Beartooth mountains. Thad's the older brother, responsible, a loner, the caretaker of Hazen, who is a little ... different. Until recently, they made ends meet the same way their father did: by working thirteen-hour days up and down the mountain splitting firewood, selling the cords door-to-door. When a menacing figure named The Scot appears with a lucrative proposition to extract stolen artifacts out of Yellowstone National Park, the brothers can't refuse, despite the staggering odds and the enormous risk. Evoking the most timeless voices of American pastoral storytelling, from John Steinbeck to Cormac McCarthy, Beartooth is a bracing, profoundly moving novel about survival, revenge, and escape.Synopsis"One of the best and fiercest heist stories since A Simple Plan . . . Beartooth is unstoppable, the literary treasure you've been looking for."--Junot D az Two brothers in dire straits, living on the edge of Yellowstone, agree to a desperate act of survival in this taut, propulsive novel reminiscent of the works of Peter Heller and Donald Ray Pollock. In an aging, timber house hand-built into the Absaroka-Beartooth mountains, two brothers are struggling to keep up with their debts. They live off the grid, on the fringe of Yellowstone, surviving off the wild after the death of their father. Thad, the elder, is more capable of engaging with things like the truck registration, or the medical bills they can't afford from their father's fatal illness, or the tax lien on the cabin their grandfather built, while Hazen is . . . different, more instinctual, deeply in tune with the natural world. Desperate for money, they are approached by a shadowy out-of-towner with a dangerous proposition that will change both of their lives forever. Beartooth is a fast-paced tale with moments of surprising poignancy set in the grandeur of the American West. Evoking the timeless voices of American pastoral storytelling, this is a bracing, masterful novel about survival, revenge, and the bond between brothers.Synopsis"Skip Yellowstone for this rawer version of the West."--New York Times Book ReviewTwo brothers in dire straits, living on the edge of Yellowstone, agree to a desperate act of survival in this taut, propulsive novel reminiscent of the works of Peter Heller and Donald Ray Pollock.In an aging, timber house hand-built into the Absaroka-Beartooth mountains, two brothers are struggling to keep up with their debts.
