Professional Reviews
: New Republic: "Kennedy is an exuberant writer who likes to try out different styles, and he succeeds so well so much of the time that I was quite won over. It is extremely satisfying to come upon a new novelist, so resourcefully assured in his command of language and place."

More Information
Details: This is the third novel in Kennedy's Albany Trilogy. Set in the 1930s, it explores the world of vagabonds through Francis Phelan, former baseball player turned hobo. Although the trilogy has recurring characters, one need not have read the previous two novels--LEGS and BILLY PHELAN'S GREATEST GAME--to appreciate this beautiful story.
