Hazard Lepage, the last of the studhorse men, sets out to breed his
rare blue stallion, Poseidon. A lusty trickster and a wayward
knight, Hazard's outrageous adventures are narrated by Demeter
Proudfoot, his secret rival, who writes this story while sitting
naked in an empty bathtub. In his quest to save his stallion's
bloodline from extinction, Hazard leaves a trail of anarchy and
confusion. Everything he touches erupts into chaos necessitating
frequent convalescences in the arms of a few good women-excepting
those of Martha, his long-suffering intended. Told with the ribald
zeal of a Prairie beer parlor tall tale and the mythic magnitude of
a Greek odyssey, The Studhorse Man is Robert Kroetsch's celebration
of unbridled character set against the backdrop of a
rough-and-ready Alberta emerging after the war. Winner of the
Governor General's Award for Fiction.
