Learn moreA mysterious Iraq war veteran with a horribly scarred face … A disturbed young man in a strange mountain town … A masked preacher with a terrible secret … Amidst a firestorm of violence, betrayal, and horror, their three worlds will eventually collide in an old mining shack buried deep in the mountains.
Corrosion, the shattering debut novel by Jon Bassoff, is equal parts Jim Thompson, Flannery O’Connor, and William Faulkner and an unforgettable journey into the underbelly of crime and passion. Drawn from the darkest corners of the human experience, it is sure to haunt listeners for years to come.
Jon Bassoff was born in 1974 in New York City and currently lives with his family in Colorado. His mountain gothic novel, Corrosion, has been translated in French and German and was nominated for the Grand Prix de Littérature Policière, France’s biggest crime fiction award. He is a connoisseur of tequila, hot sauces, psychobilly music, and flea-bag motels.
Ramiz Monsef has spent several seasons as a member of Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s acting company, and he is the playwright of OSF’s 2013 production The Unfortunates. He has also appeared onstage in New York and in numerous regional productions.
Reviews
“Bassoff confronts directly the traumatic stress disorder of our world today and tears off its mask, even if the face must follow.”
“Sharp, original, fierce, a real gut-ripper.”
“A book that cries out to be filmed by David Lynch…The debut novel from the unique Jon Bassoff begins a whole new genre: Corrosive Noir.”
“Corrosion is a beautifully bleak noir novel that stretches the boundaries of the genre to its breaking point. A virtuoso performance by the terrific Jon Bassoff.”
