A propos du livre

Revue de presse

'Funny, shocking, downright revolting and occasionally sad. Sandlin is a compelling storyteller ... Skipped Parts is somewhere between The Catcher in the Rye and Even Cowgirls Get the Blues.' --Los Angeles Times Book Review

'Dazzling ... moving ... Sam's carapace is humor ... He thinks like Holden Caulfield and has Joseph Heller's take on dispair. His Walter Mitty-like fantasies are tiny comic gems ... In the end you'll find yourself rooting for Sam.' --New York Times Book Review

'A lighthearted, amusing and tender story of preteen wisdom, adult immaturity and the fine line between ... An offbeat, engaging novel.' --Publishers Weekly

Présentation de l'éditeur

Banished to the hinterlands of Wyoming, rebellious Lydia Callahan and her thirteen-year-old son, Sam, have no choice but to cope. But while Lydia drinks and talks to the moose head on the wall, Sam finds a friend in local girl Maurey Pierce. One of the wildest, raunchiest, most heartfelt coming-of-age novels of the past thirty years, Skipped Parts puts Tim Sandlin in the upper echelon of contemporary comic novelists.
