Synopsis "the good body"

The Good Body is a triumphant blend of mordant humour and heartbreak. It tells the comic and poignant story of a retired pro-hockey ruffian named Bobby Bonaduce who is stubbornly ignoring a disease - multiple sclerosis - that may be killing him. Bobby returns to his hometown and scams his way into university in a misguided attempt to redeem his messy past and lay emotional claim to a son he abandoned twenty years earlier. With this terrific novel, Bill Gaston demonstrates yet again that he is a writer of great empathy, capable it seems of getting beneath the skin of anybody. (2002 Giller Prize jury)
