About this ebook
Trained in the way of the Samurai, dreaming of the City of Brotherly
Love, Hiro Tanaka impetuously jumps ship off the coast of Georgia - only
to wash up on a barrier island populated by rednecks, descendants of
black slaves, and a colony of crazed artists. Terrifying one islander -
literally - to death, and fleeing not only from the Immigration Agents
but also an elderly lady convinced he is Seiji Ozawa, Tanaka is
unwittingly caught up in a hilarious and irretievably complicated
spider's web of misunderstandings. His sole refuge on the island, the
manipulative and ambiguous novelist Ruth Dershowitz, only draws him in
ever deeper...
