First serialized in the New York Times Magazine, this exquisite extended version of the life of fictional Canadian TV personality George Sprott only adds to Seth´s place as one of the form´s masters. In the hours and moments before Sprott´s death in 1975, the omniscient—and nameless—narrator flashes both backward to key moments in the TV man´s life and forward to interviews conducted after Sprott´s passing.
