From the bestselling author of The People We Hate at the Wedding, Grant Ginder's second novel, a sensitively observed story about storytelling (The New Yorker), takes readers on a 21st century road trip that will "appeal to fans of Junot Diaz and Michael Chabon" (Booklist).Finn McPhee edits a reality TV show. His father, Colin, is a screenwriter. Both are adept at spinning fictions, a skill passed down to them by McPhee patriarch Alistair, whose wild yarns never failed to capture Finns youthful imagination-even as they cast a fragile veil over a past marked by devastating loss, unbearable love, and an incessant longing for a life whose heroic proportions could measure up to the breathtakingly vivid color of Alistairs dreams. As Finn embarks on a road trip across America with his best friend, Randal, and a three-legged cat named Mrs. Dalloway in a last-chance bid to make his grandfathers dreams come true, he will finally learn that the truth, though not always stranger than fiction, can sometimes make the best story of all.
