Book Synopsis
With nascent love abandoned and the recurring presence of the creeping 'wrinkled-nosed' laundry man of a traumatic childhood, the stagnating life of Pagan must be revived by the discovery of a somewhat questionable raison d'etre the assassination of an aristocrat. The spleenful nature of Herdman's titular protagonist and a selection of odd experiences perfectly sets up a strife deep within himself: can and how can Pagan commit to his partially bookfound life-calling, tangled into his pilgrimage? In these partnered publications, Pagan's Pilgrimage and A Truth Lover, John Herdman expertly demonstrates his capacity to evoke complicatedly moralising characters with haunting effect. In both works, the protagonists toil and struggle with the brutal world that birthed them, leading to quivering encounters - equal parts absurd and ephemeral.
