      Fup is a tale of two humans, one duck and several vats of home-brewed whisky

      There''s Grandaddy Jake Santee, 99 years old, an unreformed gambler, cranky reprobate and fierce opponent of the work ethic. Thanks to his home-distilled hooch, Ol'' Death Whisper, he reckons he''s in with good shot at immortality. And then there''s Tiny, adopted at the age of four by Grandaddy Jake, a giant young man as gentle as Jake is belligerent.

      And then there''s Fup, an uncompromising twenty-pound mallard, partial to a drink herself, whose unique presence transforms the Santee household.

      Hilarious, heartwarming and magical, Fup is a contemporary fable that inspires an almost evangelical fervour in all who read it. It is a work of enormous originality with a giant heart.
