A propos de cet article

The PEN/Faulkner Award winner's fourth novel; the boards show damp stains and very slight foxing on spine; similar damage to dustjacket verso in same area: damage not visible when DJ's in place. A decent reading copy/placeholder.

Synopsis

black and orange cloth gilt lettering dust jacket 364 pp

Présentation de l'éditeur

Young Japanese seaman Hiro Tanaka, inspired by dreams of the City of Brotherly Love and trained in the ways of the samurai, jumps ship off the coast of Georgia and swims into a net of rabid rednecks, genteel ladies, descendants of slaves, and the denizens of an artists' colony. In the hands of T. Coraghessan Boyle, praised by Digby Diehl in Playboy as "one of the most exciting young fiction writers in America," the result is a sexy, hilarious tragicomedy of thwarted expectations and mistaken identity, love, jealousy, and betrayal.
