Set in Montreal from the early twentieth century till the 70's we follow in a non linear fashion the story of Joshua Shapiro. This novel is quite funny ( in mostly a dark humor vein ) and entertaining. The overarching conflict is typical of poor versus rich and who is more moral however it was well written and definitely filled with Canadiana. An enjoyable book with good characterization and plotting.
