Fool on the Hill: A Novel,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
It is a literary event when a genuinely new fictional voice comes along. When that voice achieves its newness not through a certain formal facility but through the freshness of its vision, there is truly something to celebrate. Matt Ruff was only twentytwo when Fool on the Hill was first published, but with his novel he gave us a story that won over readers of every persuasion. Not your usual first effort, Fool on the Hill is a fullblown epic of life and death, good and evil, magic and love.Think of the imaginative daring of Mark Helprins Winters Tale. The zany popism of Tom Robbinss Another Roadside Attraction. The gnomish fantasies of J.R. Tolkien. Think of these and you begin to get some idea of one of the most remarkable first novels to come along in years.In the world of Fool on the Hill dogs and cats can talk, a subculture of sprites lives in the shadows and underfoot (if youre the sensitive type, or drunk enough, you might see them cavorting across the lawn), and the Bohemians, a group of Harley and horsebackriding students dedicated to all things unconventional, hold allnight revels for the glory of their cause.Then there is Stephen Titus George, the novels youthful hero, who somehow finds himself the main player in a story that began well over a century ago. George is a mildmannered flier of kites, a sometimes writer of bestselling fiction, and wouldbe knight looking for a maiden. George will find his girl and the centuryold story will provide the proverbial dragon whose slaying will sanctify their love. But it will not be a sword that fells the foe but the transforming power of the imagination.
