Walker Awake is the first book in the telling of the Walker cycle: a hallucinatory American noir where memory, myth, and murder converge.
Texas, 1957. A man wakes in a diner with no name, no past — only a coffee cup for an anchor and the faint sense he is someone called Walker. Outside, the law is waiting. In a farmhouse nearby, a whole family lies slaughtered.
Blending the atmosphere of mid-century noir with mythic undertones and a dreamlike narrative, Walker Awake is published by The Datura Press as part of its catalogue of experimental, gothic, and mythic storytelling.
