Product Description

Book Jacket
Set in the border states of Kansas and Missouri during the American Civil War, Daniel Woodrell's magnificent novel Woe To Live On, now filmed by Ang lee as Ride with the Devil, explores the nature of lawlessness and violence, friendship and loyalty, through the eyes and thoughts of Jake Roedel. During the winter of 1861 Roedel grows up fast, experiencing a brutal parody of war without standards or mercy.

Woe To Live On is a renegade western in the style of Thomas Berger's Little Big Man that celebrates the genre while at the same time bushwhacking some of its most celebrated traditions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommendable!, 22 Jan 2005
I'm not really into reading westerns and bought the book after having seen the film which I loved. The first page plunges the reader right into the midst of action and I found it hard to put the book down until I reached the end which was much too soon and leaves this reader dearly wanting to know what will become of the main characters. The language the novel is written in is refreshing and oh so suitable to the tale Wodrell has to tell. One can literally hear the characters speak and the expressions and grammar used, the dialogue being crisp and natural, make this book a true joy to read. This is one to take off the shelf again and again.
