À propos de cet audio
When five-year-old Joshua Christopher disappears off the street as he walks to a friend’s birthday party, his family is forced to confront the unimaginable. What happened? Why? Who took him? Was the convicted sex offender caught lurking near the search? Why won’t the police leave his family, his parents, alone?
In his second novel, his first in 20 years, Robert H. Van Wagoner explores a family in extremis tottering at the edge of faith: in God and church, in family, and in marriage - in the institutions that promise safety and meaning. Both lyrical and explosive, The Contortionists unfolds as a pause-resisting mystery.
Van Wagoner’s wrenching narrative propels the listener forward toward the novel’s harrowing climax, while deftly unpacking its major themes - mental illness, sexuality, and substance abuse in a culture that would rather not confront them. Does the truth ever set anyone ultimately free? The stakes for Joshua and his family could not be greater.
