New Book review - Spanish fly by Will Ferguson
(taken from www.reviewsofbooks.com) Spanish Fly
begins in Paradise Flats, Texas during the
Depression. Jack McGreary is an intelligent young
man, smart enough to know that his father has
been conned out of his money. Jack does small
cons in town to raise money, and when a couple of
professional grifters, called Virgil and Miss
Rose, come to town, Jack is fascinated by them.
He joins the two of them, learning all the cons
and inventing new ones. He begins to doubt
Virgil's and Miss Rose's stories about their past
and increasingly comes to the realization that
grifters rarely come to a happy end. His growing
attraction to Miss Rose also puts him
increasingly at odd with Virgil. Will Ferguson's
novel has received mostly positive reviews with
The Telegraph saying, "This is a terrific book,
lyrical and hilarious, bleak and funny, with a
love of history balanced against a rippingly
clever plot."
