Bristling with intelligence and shimmering with romance, this novel tests the boundary between history and myth.

From the author of "The English Patient". The story of a N.American immigrant in the 1920's, struggling to find a life in Toronto. A dream-like and surreal atmosphere, requires dedicated reading.
