Description: A misfit man finds a misfit dog. Ray, aged fifty-seven, 'too old for starting over, too young for giving up', and One Eye, a vicious little bugger, smaller than expected a good ratter. Both are accustomed to being alone, unloved, outcast - but they quickly find in each other a strange companionship. As spring turns to summer, their relationship grows and intensifies, until a savage act forces them to abandon the precarious life they'd established, and take to the road. A wholly different kind of love story, Spill Simmer Falter Wither is a devasting portrait of loneliness and loss, and of the restorative power of friendship.--Book cover.
