Recenzii
"A beautifully constructed comedy which wryly observes a small town's follies with a subtle-but-hip sensibility. A Kiwi-flavored Garrison Keillor." "--Esquire", Books of the Year
Textul de pe ultima copertă
In this rollicking first novel, a small town is thrown into an uproar when several of its teenage citizens claim to have been impregnated by spacemen. Are they "spinning" tales? A crushed cow found lying in the center of a scorched, perfect circle in a nearby field suggests they're not -- and the rumor mill goes into overdrive with the arrival of Phillip, the new librarian. He falls for Delia and is soon caught up in the irresistible drama of uncovering the town's darkest secrets. What he finds shakes the community far more than a flying saucer ever could.
Descriere
Delia Chapman, the heroine of this extraterrestrial black comedy, is 16 years old and pregnant-quite possibly by aliens.
