In a folktale based on medieval Germanic customs, Hans, the butcher's apprentice, invites his friends to a party to chase away the icy frost of winter, stuffing wagon wheels with straw, setting them ablaze, and rolling the flaming suns down the mountainside.

"In this bittersweet tale of hard times in a small Midwestern town, two sisters and a lonesome Bulgarian immigrant offer one another consolation. . . . Angel's eccentricities attract the girls: his home, his artistic carpentry, his passion for opera. And he cements their friendship with his genuine kindness . . . Chmielarz's prose is consistently ripe . . . With successive readings, this book's shine will deepen into a gratifying patina."
