The Son
The Son is the second novel by the American writer Philipp Meyer. Published in 2013, the novel was loosely conceived as the second in a thematic trilogy on the American myth following Meyer's first novel, American Rust. The novel focuses on three generations of the McCullough family: Eli McCullough, the vicious patriarch who was the first male child born in the newly formed Texas, his son Peter McCullough, a learned man who disagrees with his father's brutality but is powerless to stop it, and Eli's great-granddaughter and Peter's granddaughter, Jeanne Anne "J.A." McCullough, who inherited her great-grandfather's toughness and went on to become a wealthy oil baroness. In 2017, the novel was adapted into the television series, The Son, starring Pierce Brosnan as Eli McCullough. Source: Wikipedia (en)
