Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Norman Green (illustrator). 1st Edition. "Fup" is a remarkable book about kinship, love, magic, and death. Set in the coastal hills of northern California between 1880 and the present., the story centers on three characters: two humans, one duck. Granddaddy Jake Santee, 99 years old and convinced of his immortality, is an unreformed gambler, cranky reprobate and fierce proponent of the still life. He religiously practices his belief that drinking Ol' Death Whisper--a 97-percent-pure whiskey elixir he distills himself from a secret recipe--will keep him alive forever. Tiny, orphaned at the age of four, is adopted by Granddaddy Jake. Tiny grows into a giant young man, as gentle as Jake is belligerent. His passion is building masterfully crafted fences around the ranch, and his nemesis is a gigantic old boar named Lockjaw that delights in destroying Tiny's fences. Fup is a hen mallard duckling that Tiny discovers in one of his postholes. She is quickly adopted and becomes part of the Santee family. Possessed of an inordinate appetite and willfulness, Fup grows to 20 pounds, using her bulk and uncompromising purpose to enforce her sense of order on the household. JIM DODGE is 38 years old and lives on an isolated ranch in western Sonoma County. He has been by turns an apple picker, a carpet layer, a teacher, a professional gambler and part owner of a cardroom, a shepherd for five years and a woodcutter. His current employment is in environmental restoration--primarily tree planting, logjam removal and erosion control. The book pages are clean and free of any markings and highlighting. Binding is tight. There is a small, black mark on the page edges. The book jacket has a crease in the front jacket flap.
