Description
Book SynopsisSituating Mr. Penrose at the forefront of the American literary canon.
Trade ReviewThe novel itself is a fascinating and detailed account of how Penrose, an English castaway in the Americas, survives—and finally flourishes in a multiethnic society. Dickason's editorial intrusions are sparse but judicious: they provide necessary explanations, and they allow readers to immerse themselves in the story. . . . Recommended.
