Description
"In Saints of Big Harbour, Guy Boucher, a fatherless teenager, finds himself at the center of an ugly rumor involving a girl idealized by her town. Through his eyes and the stories of those who surround him - his uncle Isadore, Dickensian and overbearing; Pam, a quietly wise girl with a predilection for Shakespeare; his draft-dodger English teacher; a pair of golden boys stuck in emotional adolescence - several versions of the truth emerge and combine. As the story unfolds, so does a rich and often funny portrait of a community driven and oppressed by cliches of gender, strength and beauty, family and love. Villainy is an everyday affair in Big Harbour, and the closest thing to heroism is Guy's dogged ingenuousness and makeshift dignity."--BOOK JACKET.
