'Superb' Scotland on Sunday
'Original and touching' The Times
If I could tell you only one thing about my life it would be this: when I was seven years old the mailman ran over my head. As formative events go, nothing else comes close.
With these words Edgar Mint, half-Apache and mostly orphaned, makes his unshakable claim on our attention. Shunted from the hospital to a school for delinquents to a Mormon foster family, comedy, and trouble accompany Edgar - the irresistible innocent who never truly loses heart, and whose quest for the mailman leads him to an unexpected home.
'A story that tears at you and calls you back to it... There is also a human heart beating in here, as beautiful and profound as your own'Junot Diaz
'Quirky, charming and very funny' Mirror
'One of the most enjoyable reads of the year' Time Out
