Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)

Paperback. Revitalises the American road trip novel, from the perspective of a vulnerable but spirited woman. This book paints an earthy and surprising picture of 1920s America, its smells and textures, its population of drifters and con artists, pimps and prostitutes. It is epic in sweep, but intimate and psychologically acute, moving but unsentimental. Num Pages: 240 pages. BIC Classification: FA. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 198 x 129 x 18. Weight in Grams: 190.
