About This Book

The rhythms of work and talk, the grease and grime of this gas station, are here in such precision that Joseph Torra's locality becomes everyman's. With sentences that surge and swing like a John Coltrane tenor solo, Torra tells his tale of a working-class father and son. This is an extraordinary novel in the tradition of another working-class son of Massachusetts, Jack Kerouac.
