JUST started this with Michael Ian Black on the fourth season of the wonderful podcast Obscure. The book is very good so far, beginning with a story of a family of poor, religious proselytizers who beg for money just to cover their costs. Their son, Clyde, though, is not thrilled to be a part of this and wants more from life. Set in early 1920s US.

Clyde is being used by his "girlfriend" for money, we find out about where his sister ran off to, and driving stolen/borrowed cars fast leads to bad outcomes. Michael Ian Black is narrating this beautifully and I'm having a great time!

Listening to Michael Ian Black read this on his podcast called obscure, this is a novel about what it’s like to be very poor in the 1920s and then have one member of the family come into just a tiny bit of money. So far that’s what it’s about. I’m sure more tragedy will occur. I like it so far.
