About This Item
Knopf Publishing Group, 2015. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good . 6x1x8. Set in Thomas McGuaneâs accustomed Big Sky country, with its mesmeric powers, these stories attest to the generous compass of his fellow feeling, as well as to his unique way with words and the comic genius that has inspired comparison with Twain and Gogol. The ties of family make for uncomfortable binds: A devoted son is horrified to discover his motherâs antics before she slipped into dementia. A fatherâs outdoor skills are no match for an ominous change in the weather. But complications arise equally in the absence of blood, as when lifelong friends on a fishing trip finally confront their deep dislike for each other. Or when a gifted traveling cattle breeder succumbs to the lure of a strangerâs offer of easy money. McGuane is as witty and large-hearted as we have ever known himâa jubilant, thunderous confirmation of his status as a modern master.
