What if Santa Claus had given up on mankind and his most famous
reindeer turned into a homicidal alcoholic?
This alternate history is narrated by William Stonecutter, a
young man orphaned as an infant who never grew beyond 3.5 feet
tall. The world has gone to hell in a handbasket and William
intends to do something about it. He and a weary fellowship of
carnival outcasts embark on a quest to the North Pole. They make a
desperate plea to Santa: rid the world of evil so it can once again
be clean and safe for democracy.
Michael Hemmingson's fantasy of the absurd and the weird calls
to mind such great works as Gunter Grass's "The Tin Drum," Robert
Coover's "The Public Burning," Philip K. Dick's "The Man in the
High Castle," and Richard Brautigan's "Trout Fishing in America" --
combining them all into one heck of a wild sleigh ride of a
post-postmodern SF adventure
