Description: The latest novel by the author of Ninety-Two in the Shade is the story of Jos Starling, a man teetering on the edge of spectacular failures--as an artist, rancher, lover, and human being. But Stalring is also a man of noble ambitions, and his struggle to right himself is mesmerizing, hilarious and profoundly moving.
