Product Description
A family is torn apart because of grief, poverty and dependence on prescription drugs. The first part - 'Sunless' - is actually the second part of the book and is told by Sunless, the son. He is involved in drug trials at Pharmalak, a large pharmaceutical company. It's not until the second part of the book' that we find out what's going on. A second son (Salt) is born, who dies at birth. This plunges the whole family into a collective downward spiral. After the child's death, his mother is depressed and can only get through the day on a cocktail of drugs. His father becomes ill, and with not enough health insurance, signs himself and his son up for drug trails with Pharmalak. He does this on the condition that the family will always be looked after and that his wife will have enough drugs to alleviate her depression.
