"Albatross" is an absolute delight. I swallowed it whole in a single reading as I could not put it down. Possibly that is because I am very interested in three parts of the plot, golf, creative writing and even my own one Parker fountain pen with a gold nib. Fallis has a light touch and a unique plot and it all rolls out like a bolt of silk. I also sent a copy to a friend in need of a good and pleasant read. Torontonians will find many local references that are very recognizable. Another success for the winner of the Leacock award!
