Description
The Son is the story of one night in the life of a writer in the Montenegrin city of Ulcinj.
His wife has left him; his father's farm is burning ... but he hates his father anyway; he walks into town and has a series of strange encounters, with a prostitute, an old school friend, a Muslim preacher and a group of leprous refugees. Though seemingly suffused with self-hatred and a repulsion of life, The Son's misanthropic insights cast an oddly life-affirming spell on the reader.
