When I see such blurbs I am rarely impressed. This time I am - the novel is a quiet, understated journey into a child's understanding of his family including his dead mother. The Uncle is a Texas dreamer of the best kind - always sure that his next game plan will make him rich - this time it's wild horses - while always going bankrupt. This time the game plan includes his nephew tagging along.This is not great literature in the sense that it will be read 500 years from now. But it is great fun worth rereading.
