In this, his first novel, Russell Hoban writes of a time in which there are no lions any more. Middle-aged Jachin-Boaz the map-seller leaves his wife, taking with him the map that was to give his son a start in life. The boy performs rites at the palace of a long-dead king, and far away the father wakes one morning to find a lion waiting for him in the street. Painful, funny, vivid with the desperate detail of life, this book goes beyond the ordinary range of experience.
