In 104 chapters, T.C. Boyle`s hugely comic picaresque novel attaches the story of Ned Rise, thief and pimp, to the actual exploits of the real Mungo Park, one of Europe`s greatest explorers. The intricate plot describes their adventures through 18th-century London, Scotland, and--especially--a vividly evoked Africa. WATER MUSIC, Boyle`s first full-length work of fiction (published in 1981), carries all his trademarks: a firmly controlled narrative, wackily unpredictable characters, a wonderfully baroque use of language, and an expansive reach into the workings of the human heart.
