Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. BU3 - A trade paperback book in very good- condition. A tight, clean, sound copy in color wraps with minor shelf wear overall plus some light creasing on the front cover plus some very, very light bumping of the bottom right corner plus "NOT FOR RESALE" stamped in black ink on the top outside paper edges.

This is a look into the hearts and minds of boys and men at moments of crisis. Winner of the Governor General's Literary Award for Fiction. By the author of "The Englishman's Boy," "Homesick," "My Present Age," and "Things As They Are." 230p. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Seller Inventory # SCW00826
