Description
Tormented by his parents’ agonizing final moments, a grieving boy stumbles through a barren, sun-scorched land, his only company the fragile heartbeat of his newborn brother strapped to his chest. Unwilling to accept his loss, the boy sets out on a dangerous journey to reach the home of the gods—a mountain looming in the distance—seeking a way to reunite with his parents. But the grief-stricken path to the mountain is also a violent exile into adulthood, and the mountain hides secrets the gods are unwilling to share.
Not without sacrifice.
An incendiary novel that challenges conventional beliefs, Nikita’s profound debut gradually shifts from fragmented, raw prose to a more structured narrative, reflecting the evolution of human expression and thought. As the two young brothers assert their presence in a desolate, unforgiving world, Logos brings forth the bloody darkness of prehistory and invites you to contemplate the nature of morality in an age of utter moral ambiguity, raising questions that linger long after the last page is turned.
