Produktinformationen zu „Heavy Bear (ePub)“

In Tim Bowling's extraordinary new novel, The Heavy Bear, we spend an intense late-summer day in downtown Edmonton with our narrator, an unassuming college instructor who just happens to be named Tim Bowling. Haunted by the "slender sadness" of the world and looking for a way to shake off the trivial frustrations of modern life, Bowling's Tim Bowling finds himself pulled into an escapade involving an antique toy, a "liberated" capuchin monkey and an eager young student who our narrator likens to Pippi Longstocking. Advised by the bear-shaped spirit of American poet Delmore Schwartz and guided by the ghost of silent film star Buster Keaton, this Tim Bowling stumbles through his adventure until he stands free of his ghosts and finds himself willing to rejoin the bustling current of our clamorous age.
