"Half-Apache and mostly orphaned, the adventures of Edgar Presley Mint begin on an Arizona reservation at the age of seven when the mailman's jeep accidentaly runs over his head. Shunted from the hospital to a reform school to a Mormon foster family, comedy and trouble accompany Edgar - the irrestible innocent who never truly loses heart, and whose quest for the mailman eventually leads him to an unexpected home."

Never heard of this author but he was compared to my favourite John Irving, so curiosity got the best of me & I took it home from the meet-up!

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

For once I agree with the praise printed on cover: this one is original, touching and enjoyable. Not so sure about 'very funny' though... plenty of black humour amongst all the tragedies but 'very funny' are not exactly appropriate words for a story like this. I wonder if the person who said that even read the Willie Sherman part...

Am offering this to a friend who got intrigued because of the mention of Coen brothers on the cover :D
