Book Description: Since the age of thirteen, Christabel Alderton has been troubled by a sort of second sight that works sometimes, but not always. Death is much on her mind because the men in her life tend to die before their time and she's come to think she's bad luck. Fascinated by Christabel, diabetologist Elias Newman is keen to know her better but she's afraid of what might happen. Taking the reader from the River Lea via a haunted woodland bog, out to the crash of the Pacific surf on Kahakuloa Head in the Hawaiian Islands, this is Russell Hoban at his engrossing, inimitable best. : Review: ‘A narrative full of quirky charm, inventive song parodies and Paul Auster-style coincidence' -- Daily Mail: ‘Here is the humour, the fertile language and the inimitable kookiness by which all of Hoban's work is distinguished' -- Spectator: ‘Hoban has never lost the quality for which he is rightly prized: his charm ... a rare and idiosyncratic talent' -- Sunday Telegraph: ‘Hoban's head, like the future, is a fascinating place to visit' -- Guardian: ‘Russell Hoban remains one of our most unpredictable and idiosyncratic novelists' -- Peter Parker, Sunday Times : From the Publisher: A winning story of love and tragedy from the wonderful world of Russell Hoban - this time venturing beyond London, to Hawaii Size: 12.9 x 1.3 x 19.8 cm. 208 pages.
