false 379336 4 In the illustrious history of the theatrical Fishers, there are two Georges. One is a peculiar but endearing 11-year-old, raised in the seedy world of `70s boarding houses and backstages, now packed off to school for the first time; the other, a garrulous ventriloquist's dummy who belonged to George's grandfather, a favorite traveling act of the British troops in World War II. The two Georges know nothing of each other--until events conspire to unite them in a search to uncover the family's deepest secrets. Weaving the boy's tale and the puppet's "memoirs," BY GEORGE unveils the fascinating Fisher family--its weak men, its dominant women, its disgruntled boys, and its shocking and dramatic secrets. At once bitingly funny and exquisitely tender, Stace's novel is the unforgettable journey of two young boys separated by years but driven by the same desires: to find a voice, and to be loved. 369144 22 8 2007 by George: A Novel total:129|5:25|4:53|3:39|2:9|1:3| 129 475 287 40 3001517 0099516152 9780099516156 1 1 3.68 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3001517.By_George 4 10 false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Wed Nov 12 04:44:49 -0800 2008 Tue Apr 21 05:29:51 -0700 2009

Better than Hanif Kureshi and Something to Tell You. Better than Edwyn St Aubyn's Some Hope. I fell in love with this book - in fact, I fell in love with the characters in this book and genuinely did not want it to end.
