Publisher's Summary

Haunting and sly and revealing and moving into the realm of myth, Spaceman Spiritus is an unflinching expression of the vulnerabilities that make us human.

Spaceman Spiritus is a prisoner, found guilty of the enduring crime of solitude, sentenced to labor far underground somewhere in a distant galaxy. Peel is a rancher, a man tracing a lifetime of memories for those he loved and for the natural world around him. He’s about to plummet back to Earth with an angel by his side. And as for Martha and Pup, well...they’re the dogs charged with saving us all.

Told in a braid of voices, Spaceman Spiritus weaves the trajectory of these characters into a thrilling, provocative, and ultimately, heart-wrenching allegory wrestling with the bonds of love and loss and what should be, in fact, the simplest of acts—going home.
