The story is told through the alternating perspectives of three characters: Caleb Vogel, in his early 40s, is a former journalist making a living as a heavy equipment operator and raising a pair or wolves in South Mississippi, near the Gulf Coast; his wife, Jessica, is former ship welder, now a university art professor preparing for a show featuring her metal sculpture \"Natchez at Sunset\" while contemplating a divorce from Caleb; and Hubert Vogel, Caleb's father, is a cattle rancher whose property joins Caleb's, but he is estranged from his son and has promised to kill the wolves if he ever finds them on his property. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe story opens as Caleb drives up to his house and finds a dead coyote gutted and fitted over his mailbox, a newspaper clipping crumpled in its mouth. He drops the clipping on the floor of the pickup along with the others he's received-threats about his newspaper articles and opinion pieces, threats against his wolves. The setting of the novel is contemporary, or perhaps just a few years in the future, and it imagines a Mississippi where immigrants have been deported, assault rifles are openly carried, environmental laws have been considerably relaxed, and discrimination against minorities is on the rise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 270\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.61 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 06, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42726237143103,"sku":"9798218432300","price":23.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/2b91e9b35876f1b6b7d60a4615da9a86.webp?v=1765109823","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/natchez-at-sunset-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
