โฆ Synopsis
From master of subversive humor Christopher Moore comes a quirky, irreverent novel of love, myth, metaphysics, outlaw biking, angst, and outrageous redemption. As a boy, he was Samson Hunts Alone -- until a deadly misunderstanding with the law forced him to flee the Crow reservation at age fifteen. Today he is Samuel Hunter, a successful Santa Barbara insurance salesman with a Mercedes, a condo, and a hollow, invented life. Then one day, destiny offers him the dangerous gift of love -- in the exquisite form of Calliope Kincaid -- and a curse in the unheralded appearance of an ancient god by the name of Coyote. Coyote, the trickster, has arrived to reawaken the mystical storyteller within Sam ... and to seriously screw up his existence in the process.;Intro; Title Page; Copyright Page; ACKNOWLEDGMENTS; AUTHOR'S NOTE; PRONUNCIATION; PART ONE EPIPHANY; CHAPTER ONE LIFE WILL FIND YOU; CHAPTER TWO MONTANA MEDICINE DRUNK; CHAPTER THREE THE MACHINES OF IRONY BRING MEMORY; CHAPTER FOUR MOMENTS ARE OUR MENTORS; CHAPTER FIVE THE GIFT OF A DREAM; CHAPTER SIX A MALADY OF MEDICINE; CHAPTER SEVEN THE CHILDREN OF THE LARGE-BEAKED BIRD; CHAPTER EIGHT MEET THE MUSE, MR.
