Review
Amazon Best Books of the Month, July 2011: With The Devil All the Time, author Donald Ray Pollock has crafted an exceptionally gritty, twisted page-turner. This follow-up to 2008's Knockemstiff is set in the Midwest during the mid-century, but reads more like a gothic Western. Lawlessness roams the rural, god-fearing landscape of Ohio and West Virginia, inhabitated by the likes of Pollock's deranged-yet-compelling cast of characters--a husband and wife who take vacations to murder hitchhikers, a faux preacher and his crippled accomplice on the lam for manslaughter, and an orphan with a penchant for exacting violent justice. Needless to say, The Devil All the Time is a brutal novel, but Pollock exacts the kind of precision and control over his language that keeps the violence from ever feeling gratuitous. The three storylines eventually converge in a riveting moment that will leave readers floored and haunted. --Kevin Nguyen

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In rural Ohio and West Virginia, faith, violence and damage pass from life to life. NOW A MAJOR NETFLIX FILM STARRING TOM HOLLAND AND ROBERT PATTINSON In Knockemstiff, Ohio, Willard Russell returns from war carrying damage he cannot leave behind. When his wife Charlotte falls ill, his love turns desperate, then fanatical, until the prayer ground in the woods becomes a place of sacrifice, terror and grief. His son Arvin is left to grow up in the shadow of that inheritance. Sent to live in Coal Creek, he becomes fiercely protective of Lenora, a lonely, devout girl whose faith makes her vulnerable to men who know how to hide cruelty behind scripture. Around them move others shaped by the same brutal country: Carl and Sandy Henderson, killers on the highways; Roy, a broken preacher running from an old crime; and men of the law whose respectability is no protection against corruption. The Devil All the Time is a dark American literary crime novel set in post-war rural Ohio and West Virginia. Donald Ray Pollock binds its separate lives into one grim inheritance, where religious obsession, family loyalty and violence drive Arvin towards a reckoning he cannot avoid.
