In the sleepy town of Dingley Falls, Connecticut, something
funny is going on. Strange forces are pulling together the
oddest of couples: a mild-mannered matron and a lascivious
avant-garde poet; a sleek headmaster and a shy young curate;
a hippie librarian and the wayward daughter of a local
tycoon. What’s more, mailboxes are being stuffed with
shockingly violent hate letters, even as a mysterious
ailment takes the lives of perfectly healthy people. Not to
mention the strange lights flashing in the depths of the
forest…<P>With a sparkling range of characters who
hurtle through an intricate and often hilarious journey,
Michael Malone offers a sublime joyride in his classic
novel. <P>About the Author: Michael Malone is the
