About this product
Product Information
A dark, fantastical, multi-generational tale about a family whose patriarch is consumed by the hunt for the mythical, elusive sasquatch he encountered in his youth Eli Roebuck was nine years old when his mother walked off into the woods with Mr. Krantz, a large, strange, hairy man who may or may not be a sasquatch. What Eli knows for certain is that his mother went willingly, leaving her only son behind. For the rest of his life, Eli is obsessed with the hunt for the bizarre creature his mother chose over him, and we watch it affect every relationship he has in his long life--with his father, with both of his wives, his children, grandchildren, and colleagues. We follow all of the Roebuck family members, witnessing through each of them the painful, isolating effects of Eli's maniacal hunt, and find that each Roebuck is battling a monster of his or her own, sometimes literally. The magical world Shields has created is one of unicorns and lake monsters, ghosts and reincarnations, tricksters and hexes. At times charming, as when young Eli meets the eccentric, extraordinary Mr. Krantz, and downright horrifying at others, The Sasquatch Hunter's Almanac is boldly imaginative throughout, and proves to be a devastatingly real portrait of the demons that we as human beings all face.

Roebuck's search for the monster turns into an examination of what is wild-and potentially monstrous-within us all."-VanityFair.com "Shields's audacious bundling of so many characters and their accompanying plights into one supernaturally tinged story results in a veritable reading roller coaster - peaks and valleys of psychological terror, allegorical whimsy, satire and gross-out humor flash by in dizzying turn."- The Seattle Times "[An] expansive new novel…In a style that's darkly comic, spellbinding and at times quite creepy." - Seattle Magazine "Shields has written a monster of a book about monsters . . .

Brimming with flesh-and-blood characters, deft prose, and astonishing insights into love and family, The Sasquatch Hunter''s Almanac is a novel you''ll retain like a beautiful memory; you''ll run your fingers over it whenever you pass your bookshelf. Truly a tour de force."-Diana Spechler, author of Who by Fire and Skinny, A story that easily qualifies as one of the most wonderfully weird debuts of the new year . . .At heart it's a family saga, and a cautionary tale about frailties--greed, mania, ego, anger--that make us much too human. A-, Shields is capable of the best kind of magic realism: unexplained, unexpected, totally convincing...It must also be said that Shields perfectly captures the tenor of the scientifically-inclined cryptozoologist...The claims, analysis, and internal debates of contemporary Sasquatch-searchers are all perfectly characterized and dramatized without seeming didactic... The Sasquatch Hunter's Almanac is concerned with what it means to be human, how we build and break our allegiances to others, what we are capable of living through and imagining we have. After all, imagination, like the Sasquatch, may be shorn, mostly-tamed, and shoe-horned into society, but why would you want it that way? As Sheilds's novel shows us, we see best from the fringes. You just have to be willing to go there., "Imagine a mash up of Moby-Dick and Kafka's Metamorphosis (with a hearty dash of Twin Peaks thrown in), and you'll begin to get an idea of what Shields's ambitious tale of disenchantment sets out to do." -- Kirkus "Sparkling…Eli's quest is not unlike Ahab's, and Shields writes with piercing insight about the monsters that keep us from connecting with one another in this funny and wise first novel."- Booklist " The Sasquatch Hunter's Almanac is deeply strange and strangely moving.

Robert Lennon, author of Familiar and See You in Paradise, [An] Expansive New Novel...In a Style That's Darkly Comic, Spellbinding and at Times Quite Creepy., Bizarre, quirky, wonderful. Shields' characters inhabit a world where the protagonist's mother elopes with a sasquatch and, while that's a tad unreal, the strange life occurrences and relationships that develop are somehow believable and wise., On this clever, absurdist magic-carpet ride of Eli's long-running search for Mr. Krantz (and his mom), Shields introduces a hole with no bottom (where Eli's dog, Mother, is buried), Eli's two wives, his daughters, unicorns that bleed silver blood, lake monsters and more. A lesser writer would lose control of all this, but Shields proves her acuity with a smart narrative, great characters and an ending to die for., "Imagine a mash up of Moby-Dick and Kafka's Metamorphosis (with a hearty dash of Twin Peaks thrown in), and you'll begin to get an idea of what Shields's ambitious tale of disenchantment sets out to do." -- Kirkus "Sparkling…Eli's quest is not unlike Ahab's, and Shields writes with piercing insight about the monsters that keep us from connecting with one another in this funny and wise first novel."- Booklist "Imaginative, unpredictable, and endearing."- Library Journal " The Sasquatch Hunter's Almanac is deeply strange and strangely moving.
