Twelve-year-old ConaLee, the adult in her family for as long as she can remember, finds herself on a buckboard journey with her mother, Eliza, who hasn’t spoken in more than a year. They arrive at the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum in West Virginia, delivered to the hospital’s entrance by a war veteran who has forced himself into their world. There, far from family, a beloved neighbor, and the mountain home they knew, they try to reclaim their lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe omnipresent vagaries of war and race rise to the surface as we learn their story: their flight to the highest mountain ridges of western Virginia; the disappearance of ConaLee’s father, who left for the War and never returned. Meanwhile, in the asylum, they begin to find a new path. ConaLee pretends to be her mother’s maid; Eliza responds slowly to treatment. They get swept up in the life of the facility—the mysterious man they call the Night Watch; the orphan child called Weed; the fearsome woman who runs the kitchen; the remarkable doctor at the head of the institution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEpic, enthralling, and meticulously crafted,  Night Watch  is a stunning chronicle of surviving war and its aftermath.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":54359744905584,"sku":"A1638","price":6.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/8543\/8576\/files\/ebook_963_89097632b5.jpg?v=1790154088","url":"https:\/\/antbook.store\/fr-fr\/products\/night-watch-pulitzer-prize-winner-a-novel","provider":"ANTBOOK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
