Ken Kesey is a “merry prankster”, a herald of a new reality and a psychedelic guru, the author of the epic novel “Sometimes the Great Whimsy” and one of the most iconic books of the 20th century, “Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.” He had to wait almost thirty years for his third full-length novel - but “Ken Kesey’s voice is immediately recognizable, and time has no power over him” (San Jose Mercury News). So, welcome to Alaska, to the fishing town of Quinak. Here people go for tuna and salmon, they hesitate to drive away a herd of wild pigs from the city dump, and a bowling alley has been set up in a former slaughterhouse. There is nowhere to escape from Alaska - “this is the end, the finale, the Last Frontier of the Pioneers’ Dream.” But one day the floating studio "Silver Fox" comes to Quinak: the world famous director Gerhardt Stubins is going to make a Hollywood blockbuster based on the classic children's story "Shula and the Sea Lion", based on Eskimo myths. The Quinacas are only too happy – but the Order of the Beaten Dogs, “consisting of a select elite of fishermen, robbers, dock workers, drivers, corn pilots, merchant sailors, hockey fans, partygoers, lost faith in Jesus and culled angels of hell,” suspects something is wrong... “Amazing, large-scale, with crazy plot zigzags and excellently written work. Let us rejoice" (Chicago Sun-Times Book Week). The novel is published in a new translation.
