The novel "The Wind Drinkers" combines elements of several genres. It is simultaneously a family drama, a Western, and a film noir. As if in an avant-garde film, we glimpse characters: a despotic father and a fanatically religious mother; the tyrant and paranoid mayor Joyce; his minions, the dwarf Snake and the giant Double; whale hunters, World War I veterans, pirates, poachers, and less-than-model young women. But above all, it is a parable of the all-conquering love that binds three brothers and a sister: the rebellious and sensual Mabel; the literary-obsessed Mark; Mathieu, who understands the language of trees and animals; and the youngest, Luke, who imagines himself to be Jim Hawkins from Stevenson's "Treasure Island."
