When retired furniture mover/trucker Mitch Curtis is asked back to the struggling Browns Express for a days work, he ends up buying its old rusty truck and golden movers license. After years working for others, he sees a chance to have his own business and create a place where hed like to work: the coffeepot always on, the beer fridge filled for happy hour, and the customer not always right. Set several decades ago in a midsize city called Essick, Mitchs narrative focuses on his workers and the running of his business. The crew he attracts are not those men who make the world go round but the kind he has always been drawn to: the ones who do not go round but wobble on their cosmic axle.Held together by alpha male Jake, an ever-changing cast of characters enlivens the pages of this novel. Its tales are both humorous and poignant and often infuriating, documenting the secret lives of the movers.
