About this product

Product Information

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.

    • Dull

      It may be me - it was a "Staff recommendation" at Foyles - but I found it fairly dull and uninteresting, hardly a fable, more a fairy story without fairies!

    • Great, great book!

      Would've got five stars, but there was a huge sticker over most of the front cover which won't come off! Such a great little book though :)
