Country People
Daniel Mason
Miles Krzelewski is a devoted husband, a doting father beloved for his outlandish bedtime stories, and the proud owner of a truffle-hunting dog in a land with no truffles. He is also a bit lost, twelve years late with his PhD on Russian folktales, and increasingly haunted by a sense that he's become a disappointment to his family. So when his wife Kate accepts a visiting professorship at a prestigious college in the far away forests of Vermont, he decides that this will be his year to finally move forward with his life. But Miles is a man of many enthusiasms, who possesses, in Kate's words, 'a great capacity to fall in with anyone, anywhere.' And no sooner does he arrive than he finds himself entangled with a cast of characters as colourful as any of his folktales, from a ghostly tree surgeon to a scythe-mad biochemist, the world's delusions in a 'Inventory of Wrong Ideas'.
