Synopsis

In this “assured, complex and memorable tale” (Publishers Weekly), Chute once again makes a tiny corner of the world her own,a kind of Oz turned upside down with a wizard named Big Lucien, head of the Letourneau clan, another ragtag family that inhabits Egypt, Maine, and the nearby Miracle City.

About this title

About the Author:

Carolyn Chute burst on the literary scene in 1985 with the critically acclaimed and bestselling The Beans of Egypt, Maine. She followed this success with Letourneau's Used Auto Parts and the epic Merry Men. Her nonfiction work has appeared in the New York Times, the Nation, and elsewhere, and she has written about the militia movement in Maine, where she lives with her husband, Michael, and various furry creatures.

From Library Journal:

"The immediacy of the prose evokes in startling clarity the amoral jumble of passions and the suffering of characters' whole lives seem at once so different and yet so much like our own," said LJ's reviewer (LJ 6/15/88) of this follow-up to Chute's first novel, The Beans of Egypt Maine (LJ 3/15/87).
