A Good Baby by Leon Rooke, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

During the night of a storm, an Appalachian girl delivers a baby and disappears. The next morning, Raymond Toker finds the baby under a bush and takes to the mountain roads to find her a home. While Turner carries out his quest, the child's father, Truman, with "teeth as rotten as his soul, " drives his battered car along the same paths. Though critically acclaimed when first published by Knopf in 1990, and widely considered among Rooke's best novels, A Good Baby has been unjustly forgotten. This beautiful new ReSet reissue brings attention to this fast, funny, frightening masterpiece. | A Good Baby by Leon Rooke, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
