Description
This debut novel will take you by surprise. It will sneak up on you when you’re not looking. Walker’s ability to portray the humor in the grimmest situations is disarming. But keep diving in to find the business of life and the human condition. A Venn diagram where art and empathy overlap.
National Bestseller
Now a major motion picture starring Tom Holland and directed by the Russo Brothers. A young medic returns from deployment in Iraq to two things: the woman he loves, and the opioid crisis sweeping across the Midwest.
In this “miracle of literary serendipity” (The Washington Post), after finding himself deep in the thrall of heroin addiction, the soldier arrives at what seems like the only logical solution: robbing banks.
Written by a singularly talented, wildly imaginative debut novelist, Cherry is a bracingly funny and unexpectedly tender work of fiction straight from the dark heart of America.
