Summary

Dot waitresses on roller skates at the Dairy Bob, doesn't care for smoking, at least partly on account of her dad having never returned from a cigarette run, and carries on the family tradition of philosophizing. Life hasn't done her any favors in her 17 years so far. But if there was ever a heroine built for turning things upside down and seeing what shakes out, it's Dot. Determined to find out who she is and why she's the way she is, an opportunity presents itself when her heretofore-unknown uncle suddenly moves his camper into the front yard.

As in his classic novels The Bottoms and The Magic Wagon, Lansdale instills place with character and character with place. Here is an overlooked world and a cast of real folks that prove unforgettable, all rendered in one of American fiction's most authentic voices.

Utterly and truly wonderful

I wanted an introduction to the work of JRA after I read Don Coscarelli’s autobiography and hearing about making of the astonishing Bubba Ho-Tep.
I loved this, a truly uplifting story. I would love to option this and get it on screen.

Engaging Coming of Age Story

A funny and engaging coming of age story. The narrator was fantastic and really elevated what was already a great story. Highly recommended
