The Muu-Antiques by Shome Dasgupta

$18.00

Paperback. Also available as an ebook.

Percy Winks needed a job and a place to stay. Macy Thorpewaite gave him an adventure.

The Muu-Antiques has it all. Intrigue. True love. Muumuus. It’s a mystery and a romance and a coming-of-age novel—and it might be the sweetest book ever written.

“A new book by Shome Dasgupta is always a cause for celebration, and The Muu-Antiques is brilliant, off-kilter in the best ways, and it's a wise, beautiful and surprising novel. It is such a wonderful addition to his body of work.”

—Rob Roberge, Author of More Than They Could Chew

The Muu-Antiques is a southern-fried, whole-hearted, quirky mystery—it has the feel of My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She’s Sorry with the spirit of Forrest Gump. With each step of Percy’s adventure, you see the mundane anew, and true treasures come from relationships which sprout in front of us like flowers in Macy’s garden. The friendships in this novel are sweeter than the tea sipped on Macy’s porch, and by the end, you’ll wish Percy would move into the apartment above your garage. Dasgupta’s writing is as inviting, familiar, and colorful as a well-worn muumuu—it’s rare to find a book that has you rooting for both friend and foe, and then have both stick with you long after you turn the last page. This is Dasgupta’s greatest gift: find the good in everyone and let that be remembered long afterwards, like a fine antique.”

—Toby LeBlanc, Author of Dark Roux
