- Book Synopsis
- 'Under any name King mesmerizes the reader' Chicago Sun-Times It's all coming to an end for Barton Dawes. The city's Highway 784 extension is in the process of being constructed right across town and inexorably through every aspect of Bart's existence - whether it's about to barrel over the laundry plant where he makes a living, or soon to smash through the very home where he makes a life. As a result, something's been happening inside Bart's head that a heartless local bureaucracy isn't prepared for . . . As the wheels of progress and a demolition crew continue unabated throughout Bart's neighbourhood, he's not about to give everything up without a fight. As a matter of fact, he's ready and waiting to ignite an explosive confrontation with the legislative forces gathered against him.
