Notes
Description
Olivier is the child of aristocratic survivors of the French Revolution. Parrot is the motherless son of an itinerant English printer. Their wildly disparate lives will be permanently fused when Olivier sets sail for the nascent United States, with Parrot employed as his protector, foe, foil - and, unbeknownst to him, as spy. As the story unfurls through their picaresque exploits, Peter Carey explores the past and future adventures of American democracy.
