Synopsis
Tecopa Cocoa is a fanciful, realistic, funny, insightful, scholarly and uniquely optimistic coming of age tale. It starts with our hero sharing his early memories as a geeky kid trying his best to grow up in the eastern United States during the 1950s, anno Domini. His commercial pilot father was a real-live hero during WWII - a fellow born to "pull people from the drink." His quirky-cum-crazy mother only adds to the boy's bewilderment. During his fifteenth summer, his dad sends him west to visit his eccentric Uncle Henry, in the tiny Mojave Desert town of Tecopa. There he finds home amongst a ragtag crew of mind readers. It's also where he undergoes a bizarre metamorphosis. The narrator's observations about the people and world around him are alternately hilarious and tragic, but always ring true. His is the story of innocence lost and found, of humanity's propensity toward self-destruction juxtaposed with a colossal capacity for love, of mindless evil set against absolute good. This book is bound to appeal to readers who like sinking their teeth into meaty, complex sentences generously peppered with literary and historic references. But it's also for any self-respecting baby boomer who remembers Saturday afternoon matinee movies at the local theater, behemoth automobiles, disturbingly vivid colors, unrequited crushes on the cutest (usually unattainable) kid in class, and feeling different and isolated. The story parallels American history, delves into the future, and occasionally directs it. Or is it that trickster, Fate, calling the shots? The reader has to judge; the narrator's not saying. And the author only offers intriguing options. When you reach the last page, you will be sorry that it's over. I was, because I came to care so much about all the zany yet very real characters.

- r***r (2961)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaBook arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.Rethinking Investing: A Very Short Guide to Very Long-Term Investing by Charles (#396183075510)
- e***_ (15)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaSeller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.
- 0***i (5)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThe first item arrived with some damage to the inside back cover, but the seller responded immediately, assuring me they’d provide a replacement, and even told me I could keep the original. They were upfront about a short delay, and gave a clear estimated ship date, and followed up right on time once it shipped. The replacement arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described. I really appreciated their transparency and professionalism. Would definitely buy from them again!
