Martin Seay on The Patricide of George Benjamin Hill: “A scorching Oresteia for the twenty-first century.”

Here’s what Martin Seay, award-winning author of The Mirror Thief had to say about Patricide:

The eponymous industrialist of James Charlesworth’s debut novel is a bootstrapping striver, a paragon of ruthless certitude, a malevolent Forrest Gump of American capitalism; he’s also the father of grown kids with wrecked lives and serious scores to settle. As Charlesworth tracks their murder-minded convergence on a Midwestern ranch, his winding, precise sentences excavate histories both personal and national to deliver a compressed epic that doubles as a fierce indictment of traditional masculinity. Rollicking, hallucinatory, and deeply felt, The Patricide of George Benjamin Hill is a scorching Oresteia for the twenty-first century.
