Howard and Sylvia were high-school sweethearts. Now, many years later, Howard has lost the ability to speak after a long-ago accident in Vietnam, and Sylvia has a drug problem. When she is forced into rehab, she turns to the severely uncommunicative Howard: will he care for her young mixed-race son, Ryan? He does, and what follows transforms Howard's life completely. But, as he learns to connect with another human being, he also discovers untapped and very frightening aspects of himself. Dave King's first novel is an appealingly unsentimental take on the venerable odd-couple plot. [An] accomplished, moving first novel.Neither showy nor histrionic, THE HA-HA is full of emotional truth and establishes King as a writer of consequence. -- New York Times Book Review - Mark Kamine (01/23/2005). Remainder. Bookseller Inventory # C1586217410
