The Big Bazoohley by Peter Carey
This tells the story of nine-year-old Sam Kellow. His father is a compulsive gambler relentlessly pursuing the "big bazoohley" - the jackpot to end all jackpots. But it is Sam who looks like winning it when he enters the Perfect Kiddo competition.
Twice winner of the Booker Prize, Peter Carey's most recent novel Parrot and Olivier in America was described by the New Yorker as 'a comic masterpiece' and by the Sunday Times as 'an exhilarating tour-de-force'. It was shortlisted for both the Man Booker Prize and a National Book Award in 2010.
