Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The funniest novel in decades' (GQ) by the author of Academy Award-winning True Grit Ray Midge is waiting for his credit card bill to arrive. His wife, Norma, has run off with her ex-husband, taking Ray's cards, shotgun and car. But from the receipts, Ray can track where they've gone. . . He takes off after them, as does an irritatingly tenacious bail bondsman, both following the romantic couple's spending as far as Mexico. There Ray meets Dr Reo Symes, the seemingly down-on-his-luck and rather eccentric owner of a beaten up and broken down bus, who needs a ride to Belize. The further they drive, in a car held together by coat-hangers and excesses of oil, the wilder their journey gets. But they're not going to give up easily.'Charles Portis is perhaps the most original, indescribable sui generis talent overlooked by literary culture in America' Esquire.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First UK Edition (first printing), issued the year after the considerably more common US edition. 8vo. 215pp. Brown cloth lettered and ruled in gold at the spine. Top edge spotted and with a little fading to the publisher's pink top edge stain. A small area of offsetting from a now absent dealer plate to the base of the front pastedown. A critical note boldly inked to the title page by a somewhat disgruntled contemporary former owner ("Very good but doesn't know the language of the west"), prevents this from being graded higher, yet it remains an extremely crisp and bright copy in non-price-clipped pictorial dust wrapper with a striking design by Tom Adams which is distinctly superior to the US wrapper design. The wrapper is a little rubbed at the spine ends and corner tips, and with a little light chafing, and a touch of wear to the natural folds. The author's second novel, somewhat revised from its original serialisation in 'The Saturday Evening Post', and the basis for two pretty decent film adaptations.
