Rabbit Angstrom was a hometown hero but now he's slipped into a mundane job with a wife whom he's doesn't truly love and a life that doesn't seem worth it. So he runs. And that's the book and it's really good and some of the most harmonious and poetic uses of the English language for prose can be found in here. Small plot, but lots to feast on.
