Review:

"What an extraordinary little book this is....[A] piece of American grotesque that ends with an epiphany as unexpected as it is beautiful. The writing is often as good as writing gets." Ian Ross, Literary Review

Synopsis:

Set in the California hills and spanning over a hundred years, this story revolves around Grandaddy Jake - 99 years old and a belligerent unreformed gambler, Tiny - adopted by Jake and a gentle giant, and Fup - an uncompromising 20-pound mallard whose presence enforces order in the household.
