Gay's remarkable debut novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Long Home\u003c\/i\u003e, is also the story of Amber Rose, a beautiful young woman forced to live beneath that evil who recognizes even as a child that Nathan is her first and last chance at escape. And it is the story of William Tell Oliver, a solitary old man who watches the growing evil from the dark woods and adds to his own weathered guilt by failing to do anything about it. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSet in rural Tennessee in the 1940s, \u003ci\u003eThe Long Home\u003c\/i\u003e will bring to mind once again the greatest Southern novelists and will haunt the reader with its sense of solitude, longing, and the deliverance that is always just out of reach.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBorn in Tennessee in 1941, William Gay was a construction worker who didn't begin publishing until well into his fifties.
