Rhys Kinnick has gone off the grid. At Thanksgiving a few years back a fed-up Rhys punched his conspiracy-theorist son-in-law in the mouth chucked his smartphone out a car window and fled for a cabin in the woods with no one around except a pack of hungry raccoons. Now Kinnick’s old life is about to land right back on his crumbling doorstep. Can this failed husband and father a man with no internet and a car that barely runs reemerge into a broken world to track down his missing daughter and save his sweet precocious grandchildren from the members of a dangerous militia? With the help of his caustic ex-girlfriend a bipolar retired detective and his only friend (who happens to be furious with him) Kinnick heads off on a wild journey through cultural lunacy and the rubble of a life he thought he’d left behind. So Far Gone is a rollicking razor-sharp and moving road trip through a fractured nation from a writer who has been called “a genius of the modern American moment” ( Philadelphia Inquirer ).
