New York: Putnam, (2013) dj. SIGNED hardcover first edition - Fowler's tenth novel, one which Barbara Kingsolver called "a novel so readably juicy and surreptitiously smart, it deserves all the attention it can get." The novel was shortlisted for the Booker Award, the first American novel to be on that list.

This is a moral comedy to shout about from the treetops." SIGNED on the title page. 308 pp. ISBN: 978-0399162091.
