Three generations of men hunt for deer on Goat Mountain. One hot autumn day, grandfather, sonand grandson discover a poacher on their land. The eleven-year-old studies the poacher throughthe scope of his father's rifle-and pulls the trigger. Goat Mountain is an intensely powerful novel about how these men, and their boy, deal with thepoacher's death, and with his body. In prose devastating and beautiful in its precision, DavidVann explores our most primal urges, the ties that bind us, and the consequences of ouractions-what we owe for what we've done. In the tradition of Cormac McCarthy, this is a dark, brutal but magnificent book, the best Vann haswritten.
