Produktbeschreibung
The luck of the kid explores survival, ambition, and generational tension against the vast northern Canadian wilderness. The story centers on a father and son bound by a shared pursuit of elusive gold and strained by resentment that underlies their relationship. As they push forward through a punishing landscape filled with physical and emotional challenges, the weight of past failures and unfulfilled dreams intensifies their journey. Their internal conflicts echo the rugged terrain around them, underscoring how isolation sharpens both resolve and doubt. The narrative draws out the fragile balance between desperation and hope as they attempt to outwit rivals and endure unforeseen threats. A looming presence of violence and uncertainty hangs over their mission, adding psychological depth to their already fraught dynamic. The wilderness becomes more than setting it becomes a test of endurance, loyalty, and personal truth. Within the silence and heat of the sub-Arctic summer, a quiet reckoning begins to unfold, forcing each man to face what they value most.
Autorenporträt
Ridgwell Cullum was a British author known for his prolific output of adventure novels, often set in the sparsely populated regions of the United States and Canada. Born in London on August 13, 1867, Cullum developed a deep interest in frontier life and wilderness landscapes, which greatly influenced his literary works. His writing career spanned over 30 years, during which he created numerous novels that captured the spirit of adventure, exploration, and the challenges faced by people in remote and often harsh environments. Cullum's works were popular for their vivid descriptions of the landscapes and the characters that inhabited them, with many stories focusing on themes of survival, conflict, and personal growth. He passed away on November 3, 1943, in Newton Abbot, United Kingdom, leaving behind a legacy of adventure fiction that continues to be appreciated by readers of the genre. Cullum's parents were also from London, and while not much is known about his family background, his writing reflects a keen understanding of both human nature and the vast, untamed lands that he portrayed in his books.
