Red Sky in Morning

Language is the reason to read/listen to this book. Just amazing and frankly it seems Mr. Lynch was just showing off at times but when you can write like this, well go for it. The story and characters are fairly standard. Well if you consider idiots and sadists to be normal parts of rather violent tales set in Ireland and the U.S. in the first half of the 19th century. But again you're not really here for them, though by end I did want to see what happened to the main characters despite the queasy and unsettling start to the book.
