5.0 out of 5 stars Ferguson keeps getting better!, June 17, 2008
This review is from: Spanish Fly (Hardcover)
i just stumbled upon Ferguson's early work "Happiness" in a second hand book shop, and really enjoyed it. It was witty, populated with characters that were suitably flawed and human, and a plot that kept you reading.

His latest is even better - with a wonderfully crafted backdrop of the late 1930's in the dust-bowl hard scramble U.S. Ferguson creates a foreshadowing of a dark cloud of a coming war, through small clips of events in Europe. (Ferguson is slightly off on some historical details in these snippets, but they still are used to good effect).

Essentially a story of a small town young man who meets with a pair of grifters and discovers much about life, human nature and himself.

An absolute pleasure to read!
