About this product

Product Information

A random bolt from a DC-8 falls from the sky, killing a child and throwing the faith of a young Jesuit Jesuit into crisis. A boy's mother dies on his fifth birthday, sparking a lifetime of repressed anger that he unleashes once a year in reckless duels with the Fate, God, or Power who let the coincidence happen. A young woman on a run in Seattle experiences a shooting star moment that pierces her with a love that will eventually help heal the Jesuit, the angry young man, and innumerable others.The journeys of this unintentional menagerie carry them to the healing lands of Montana and a newly founded community-where nothing tastes better than Maker's Mark mixed with glacier ice, and nothing seems less likely than the soul-filling delight a troupe of spiritual refugees, urban sophisticates, road-weary musicians, and local cowboys begin to find in each other's company. With Sun House , David James Duncan continues exploring the American search for meaning and love that he began in his acclaimed novels The River Why and The Brothers K .

Reviews
"Reading Sun House is like watching dawn in the high country. A clear, eastern light gains strength as the story unfolds, revealing a landscape as vast and gorgeous as any mountain range at daybreak. On this bright stage, David James Duncan's unlikely, perfectly-wrought, beloved characters perform a miracle: From ragged strands of tragedy and epiphany, they weave the fabric of a more openhearted world."-- BRYCE ANDREWS, author of Holding Fire: A Reckoning with the American West, " Sun House is a cathedral, a high-domed room of stories the reader enters and never fully leaves...a profound gift to readers (like me) who hunger for the insights of ancient texts but lack the appetite to read them on my own."-- HANK LENTFER, author of Raven's Witness and Faith of Cranes, " Sun House quickly envelopes readers in language that offers up new ways of thinking. There's an honorable gentleness in the characters that engenders a longing to understand our fellow humans...The novel creates an immersive experience with its thin, Bible-like pages and various font treatments that indicate journal entries and dream sequences, different tones of voice, and winding narration, which makes reading feel akin to following a snaking river."-- Anna Paige , MONTANA FREE PRESS, "[ Sun House ] takes as many turns as Missoula's Rattlesnake Creek, all the while celebrating the extraordinary power of community."-- Debra Magpie Earling , The New York Times, Praise for The Brothers K : "A stunning work: a complex tapestry of family tensions, baseball, politics and religion, by turns hilariously funny and agonizingly sad."-- Publishers Weekly, "There are books that make you a happy insomniac and Sun House is absolutely one of them, like Quixote or Moby or Copperfield, the kind when you wake at three in the morning you remember that beside the bed is a thousand-room mansion of a novel, where every door opens to unexpected weather and a keen sense of appetite. Here is the best part: while these characters come in all shades of funny and searching and rueful and indignant, they are all right there and as wide awake as you are. A new big book from David James Duncan? This is a lucky time to be a reader."-- LEIF ENGER, author of Peace Like a River, "[ Sun House ] is what might colloquially be called a yarn. Like the best-told folk tales in every culture, the story is an adventure, a comedy and what could be called a teaching moment. Indeed, a moment we can all learn from."-- Ron Jacobs , Counterpunch, "Reading [ Sun House ] is to fall in love with its myriad characters as they move through their own versions of walking a spiritual path. It's a rare novel that can hold up under the sheer weight of so many fully drawn and endlessly fascinating characters. Sun House doesn't just hold the weight, it floats and even soars with it."-- Marc Beaudin , Big Sky Journal, "Jim Harrison meets Robert M. Pirsig, Timothy Leary, and the Dalai Lama in Duncan's long-awaited follow-up to The River Why (1983) and The Brothers K (1992)...arch and bookish (Gary Snyder makes a cameo appearance), [ Sun House ] will prove captivating to those who enjoy novels of ideas--in this case, one that modernizes the Western by injecting it with ethnic diversity and doses of philosophy (and LSD, even)...a book by a first-rate writer and one to be savored." -- Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
