At home there are four bedrooms: one for her, one for her little
brother Sam, one for her parents, and one for the carcasses. Her
father is a big-game hunter, a powerful predator, and her mother is
submissive to her violent husband's demands. The young narrator
spends the days with Sam, playing in the shells of cars dumped for
scrap and listening out for the melody of the ice-cream truck,
until a brutal accident shatters their world. This breathtaking
debut is a sharp and funny coming-of-age tale in which reality and
fantasy collide.
