"Ce livre est à la fois une danse, un chant et un éclat de lune, mais par-dessus tout, l'histoire qu'il raconte est, et restera à jamais, celle de la Petite Indienne." La Petite Indienne, c'est Betty Carpenter, née dans une baignoire, sixième de huit enfants. Sa famille vit en marge de la société car, si sa mère est blanche, son père est cherokee. Lorsque les Carpenter s'installent dans la petite ville de Breathed, après des années d'errance, le paysage luxuriant de l'Ohio semble leur apporter la paix.

"La mort d'un être cher ou comment faire l'inventaire d'une vie sur le mode tragicomique. Un très touchant premier roman." - Le Matricule des anges. Il y a d'un côté le colosse unijambiste et alcoolique, et tout ce qui va avec : violence conjugale, comportement irrationnel, tragicomédie du quotidien, un "gros déglingo", dit sa fille, un vrai punk avant l'heure.
