Description
[Machine Translation] Her father William was a church organist. He is also a tattoo collector with Bach and Handel scores carved all over his body. He has been moving from port town to port town in Northern Europe, attracted by the organ, which he plays well, and a skilled carver. Mother Alice, with young Jack in tow, follows William as he flees. Copenhagen, Stockholm, Oslo, Helsinki, Amsterdam.... With the help of a network of churchgoers and tattoo artists in each city, they continue their journey, but finally give up. They settle in Toronto. Jack, who never knew his father, enrolls in a former girls' school under his mother's belief that "girls are safe," and grows up while (unintentionally) bewitching older women. This is a raging epic by one of the greatest storytellers in contemporary American literature.
