William L. Sullivan

    L'opera di Sullivan è profondamente informata dal suo intenso rapporto con il linguaggio e dalle sue esperienze immersive nella natura selvaggia. Fonde magistralmente i suoi viaggi e le sue esplorazioni solitarie con una spiccata sensibilità letteraria, addentrandosi in temi come la natura, la resistenza e la connessione umana con il selvaggio. La sua scrittura è caratterizzata da un'osservazione meticolosa e da una prosa lirica che trasporta i lettori nel cuore delle sue avventure. La voce unica di Sullivan emerge da questa fusione di curiosità intellettuale e un profondo e costante rispetto per il mondo naturale.

      "When a swami reveals that the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh has been reincarnated as a 26-year-old barista in a coffee shop in Northeast Portland, Neil Ferguson suspects there will be trouble. In the 1980s the original Bhagwan brought thousands of red-robed followers to Oregon, preaching enlightenment and free love. They built a utopian city in Eastern Oregon's desert--and then poisoned hundreds of people in an attempt to overthrow the government. Now the Rajneeshees are back, building a new commune on an Indian reservation near Crater Lake. After people begin falling victim to a mysterious sniper, Ferguson has to find out the truth behind the Rajneesh revival--and rescue his niece Harmony." -- Provided by publisher
