About the Book
Felipe was an unusual name in the small isolated Newfoundland community where the boy was born in 1937, but the saga around his name is nothing compared to the anxiety and desperation that lie ahead. Shy and withdrawn he feels in the language of the place and time, "like a fish out of water."
