About this audiobook
A stubborn homeowner engages in a whimsical but determined domestic cold war with his family over the fate of a massive, central chimney. As his wife and daughters plot to remove the architectural giant, the narrator defends it as a symbol of his own identity and history. Melville delivers a surprisingly witty and philosophical look at the preservation of the self.
