Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Padgett Powell, author of the acclaimed The Interrogative Mood and "one of the few truly important American writers of our time" (Sam Lipsyte), returns with a hilarious Southern send-up of Samuel Beckett's classic Waiting for Godot. Truly a master of envelope-pushing, post-postmodern American fiction, in a class with Nicholas Baker and Lydia Davis, Powell brilliantly blends the sublime, the trivial, and the oddball in You & Me, as two loquacious gents on a porch discuss all manner of subjects, from the mundane to the spiritual to the downright ridiculous. At once outrageously funny and profound, You & Me is yet another brilliant, boundary-bursting masterwork, proving once again that, "there are few writers who understand both the beauty and the absurdity of language as well as Padgett Powell" (Kevin Wilson, author of The Family Fang) and that, "Padgett Powell is one of the best writers in America, and one of the funniest, too" (Ian Frazier). You & Me: A Novel won the James Tait Black Prize for Fiction.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. The California desert hasn't changed, but everything else in Blue McCarron's life is about to. After the inevitable break-up with partner Roxie in Philadelphia, Blue drags herself home--to the tumbleweeds, sidewinders, and emptiness. A part-time job teaching Social Psychology at a private university in nearby San Diego provides at least the appearance of a life. But when Lupe, an unfriendly colleague invites her to a Mexican rock concert, everything in Blue's life begins to shift. And when the gorgeous rock star is kidnapped and the campus is blanketed with flyers calling for the death of a young, gay Spanish professor, Blue finds herself in the middle of a brand new mystery--who is behind the paper threats? Fighting a growing and inappropriate attraction to the just-divorced Lupe, Blue searches for the culprit amid oddball board members, rancorous academics, and obscure Latin American politics. And when the threat lands at Lupe's doorstep, Blue is left with only her instinct to stop it.…

Sadly, the girls will never be able to teach their grandfather, Charlie, their simple, happy, loving lessons. When his father, Charlie, rejects him, Knox leaves his home on Tybee Island, Georgia, for a new life in New York City. Knox's mother, Jinx, is torn between her husband and her only child, but as a dutiful wife, she supports Charlie, yet seethes with resentment over her husband's narrowmindedness. But when Charlie dies unexpectedly without reconciling with their son, Jinx, along with the family maid, Polly Ann, heads for New York City, leaving behind all her friends and family and the only home she has ever known. Hoping to reunite with her son, Jinx finds Knox waiting for her with love and forgiveness. And with the help of Knox's new family and a host of New York friends, Jinx learns that she hasn't lost her family, after all.
