Book Description:
Molly's and Tex's abrupt and accidental deaths have granted them a unique opportunity to brazenly reinvent their personal realities-not to mention a chance to commune with various forsaken ancient deities and down-and-out woodland spirits. But a pair of gentle souls once firmly rooted in the Earth cannot so easily vacate this corporeal plane. There are despoilers, witches, wolves, outlaw hackers, and rabid survivalists running wild through the soon-to-be corporately mutated Great North Woods. And Tex and Molly aren't about to vanish forever into the fast-moving eddy of Time until they take one last shot at profoundly influencing Eternity and this Life that is no longer theirs. Like a racous pagan dance in Thomas Pynchon's garden, here is a novel rich in intelligence, wit, unrestrained joy, and serious strangeness -a truly breathtaking flight of the imaginatino-written with style and heart by an award-winning storyteller whom the Washington Post once proclaimed "either a genius or a madman."

Check your bs meter at the door...this book is pretty weird but not so far out there that you get lost in the plot. Very interesting, makes you wonder what the author was thinking when he wrote this!

I read this book a number of years ago, but enjoyed the experience. Tex and Molly are aging hippies living and dying in Maine. They really don't realize they have died and stick around their house boat. There is a mix of old religion and ancient land spirits and the conflict of modern tree farming and rabit survivalists. There is comedy, tragedy, witches, wolves and fast moving action surprising and in the end pleasing if you like the modern day meeting the paranormal.
