A visionary novel centered around former newspaperman Sam Cunningham as he prepares to die, Late City covers much of the early 20th century, unfurling as a conversation between the dying man and a surprising God. As the two review Sam's life, from his childhood in the American South, his time during World War I to his fledgling newspaper career in the Roaring Twenties and the decades that follow, snippets of history are brought sharply into focus. Perfect for fans of literary and historical fiction.
