White is a professor whose seemingly enviable existence of relative ease has left him nonetheless in despair. Black, an excon and exaddict, is the more hopeful of the menthough he is just as desperate to convince White of the power of faith as White is desperate to deny it.Their aim is no less than this: to discover the meaning of life.Deft, spare, and full of artful tension, The Sunset Limited is a beautifully crafted, consistently thoughtprovoking, and deceptively intimate work by one of the most insightful writers of our time.
