Book Overview

The unforgettable story of a housepainter turned doctor in Big Sky country who finds himself on a darkly funny journey to salvation in this "irrepressibly comic and optimistic" novel (The New York Times Book Review) from the acclaimed author of Ninety-two in the Shade and Cloudbursts

Berl Pickett is living in the small town of Livingston, Montana. The son of Pentecostal rug-shampooers, Pickett has never been the social toast of the town, but when he is accused of negligent homicide in the death of his former lover, he finds himself ostracized by his colleagues and realizes just how small his little village truly is. But fortunately for Berl, the very thing that sets him apart--his inability to follow the pack--proves to be his saving grace. With this inglorious hero, McGuane has created an unforgettable voyager.
