Harley Altmyer, the heartbreaking, hilarious, and lovable hero has more on his shoulders than most guys his age. With his father dead and his mother in jail for the murder, Harley is trapped by his reponsibilities, juggling two low-paying jobs and the care of his three younger sisters. His only escape is in the occasional six-pack...and in the beautiful young woman whose unexpected attentions provide Harley with pretty much the only pleasure in his crazy, chaotic life. But while Harley is struggling to keep it together, things start to fall apart, leading to a series of staggering surprises. Then only Harley's endearing humor, his love for his sisters, and his bumbling heroics can redeem them all... 2000. 405 pages. PB in very good condition. Oprah book club selection.
