Philipp Meyer discusses The Son at Lutyens & Rubinstein

July 16, 2013 @ 7:00 pm

| £5

Philipp Meyer’s debut novel, American Rust, was a significant critical success both in the US and UK with comparisons made to the writing of Steinbeck, Faulkner and McCarthy.

The Son is an epic, panoramic novel that maps the violence of the American West through the lives of an ambitious family, as resilient and dangerous as the land they claim. Love, honour and children are sacrificed in the name of ambition as the family becomes one of the richest powers in Texas. Violent, brave and visceral, Meyer examines the creation of America and ‘The American Dream’ via the vast landscape and history of Texas.
