'The Sunset Limited grips from the very first page' – Financial Times
A startling encounter on a New York subway platform leads two strangers to a run-down tenement where a life or death decision must be made.
In that small apartment the two men, known as 'Black' and 'White', begin a conversatino that leads each back through his own history.
White is a professor whose seemingly enviable existence of relative ease has left him nonetheless in despair. Black, an ex-con in recovery for drug addiction, is the more hopeful of the men. He is, however, desperate to convince White of the power of faith – while White is desperate to deny it.
Between them, they hope to discover the meaning of life itself. -
