About This Item
Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1981. Hardcover. Near Fine in a Near Fine dust jacket. A sharp copy.. 8vo. 201 pp. Author's second and scarcest title. A hard-boiled thriller involving American expatriates in Mexico. Partly because of the weak construction at the rear hinge, which tends to crack, this title has become harder to locate, particularly in fine condition, than his first book.
Synopsis
The author of five novels and two collections of stories, Richard Ford was awarded the Pulitzer Prize and the PEN/Faulkner Award for Independence Day , the first book to win both prizes. In 2001 he received the PEN/Malamud Award for excellence in short fiction.
