In the summer of 1976, Duane Oshun finds himself stranded in a remote Montana town beset by a series of strange and menacing events. He takes a job as a logger and builds a cabin on an isolated road near a reclusive neighbor--a hermit named Ted Kaczynski. The two men are captivated by the valley's endangered old-growth forest, but Kaczynski's violent grievances against modern society soon threaten the lives of all those around him. As Kaczynski's bombs crescendo to the book's devastating conclusion, Old King wrestles with the birth of the modern environmental movement, the accelerating dominion of technology in American life, and a new kind of violence that lives next door. Told in four parts sweeping across two decades, Old King establishes Maxim Loskutoff as one of the most thrilling and inventive authors of the American west, a writer "endowed with fearless audacity, stunning grace, and gutsy heart" (Nickolas Butler). 600 10 $a Kaczynski, Theodore John, $d 1942-2023 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Technology and civilization $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Technology $x Environmental aspects $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Violence $v Fiction. 650 6 $a Technologie et civilisation $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Technologie $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $x Aspect de l'environnement $0 (CaQQLa)201-0374355 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Violence $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 651 0 $a Montana $v Fiction. 651 6 $a Montana $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Western fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20240604014538.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=953679F8223B11EF96E545AA58ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
