Dennis McFarland's acclaimed debut novel, hailed by the New York Times Reserve Review as "a unusual pleasure... Remarkable from its beginning to its surprising, satisfying end." Musician Marty Lambert's life has already been falling apart when he obtains the telephone call that changes everything. His sibling, Perry, has wiped out himself in NY, and Marty - along with his relationship on the rocks and his record company sliding into insolvency - determines to leave San Francisco to investigate exactly what went incorrect. His trip transmits him headlong into the life his only sibling left out - his pleasures and disappointments, his friends, his lovely lover, Jane - and lastly, to the home they distributed growing up in Virginia. Along the way, through memory and dreams, Marty relives their complicated upbringing as the children of skilled, volatile musicians and alcoholics. From the tragedy, Marty finally encounters the demons of his history, ones he pretended he previously buried long ago, to emerge on the other side of grief, toward solace and a far more hopeful future.
