Waterland by Graham Swift is $1.99 at Amazon US.
I originally read the book 20+ years ago for a modern lit class and loved it. I think I'll have to give it a re-read.

Set in the bleak Fen Country of East Anglia, and spanning some 240 years in the lives of its haunted narrator and his ancestors, Waterland is a book that takes in eels and incest, ale-making and madness, the heartless sweep of history and a family romance as tormented as any in Greek tragedy.
