Unconstrained, astute, provocative, often laugh-out-loud funny, Frank Bascombe is, here, once more our guide to the great American midway.Now in the twilight of life, a man who has occupied many colourful lives — sportswriter, father, husband, ex-husband, friend, real estate agent — Bascombe finds himself in the most sorrowing role of all; caregiver to his son, Paul, diagnosed with ALS. On a shared winter's odyssey to Mount Rushmore, Frank in typical Bascombe fashion faces down the mortality that is assured each of us, and in doing so confronts what happiness might signify at the end of days.In this memorable novel, Richard Ford puts on display the prose, wit and intelligence that make him one of the world's most acclaimed living writers. Be Mine is a profound, funny, poignant love letter to our beleaguered world.‘One of the finest achievements of modern American fiction’ The IndependentLanguage: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 153mmAuthor: Richard FordGenre: FictionRelease Year: 2023 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
