Inhalt
Purdy's exquisitely surreal fiction has been populated for more than 40 years by social outcasts living in crisis and longing for love. However, Purdy was also among the first novelists to incorporate transgressive renderings of gay life into his work, including unapologetic, sexually explicit material. »Narrow Rooms« is a powerful story of love turned around, of passion and fierce discovery, of lives illuminated by flickering violence, it ranks among his most characterful works. As Purdy spins the story of the extraordinary symbiotic relationship between four boys in a remote West Virginia mountain town, led by the seemingly hypnotic power of the one known as »the renderer«, the prose itself is rendered by the author into spare, ecstatic brilliance. One boy returning as a young man who was imprisoned for a capital crime and is now seeking to lead a normal life is ever again haunted by the deed he was forced to commit by one of his friends. But he doesn't let him have normalcy. A new disaster is inevitable.
