Description

Thomas Savage's extraordinary novel The Power of the Dog was originally published by Little, Brown in 1967. This republication heralds the welcome return of one of the most distinctive voices of the American West & is truly cause for celebration. The Power of the Dog is a gripping domestic drama set in 1920s Montana. It tells the story of two brothers - & of the woman & her son, whose arrival on the brothers' ranch shatters an already uneasy peace. From the novel's startling first paragraph to its very last word, Thomas Savage's voice - & the intense passion & cruelty of his characters - holds readers in thrall.
