Hardback. Condición: Fair. A fluent, mordant, authentic, propulsive narrative wonderfully lit from within by an intriguing main character.The Texas of the novel.has been written about before, and very well. Kennedy rises to the challenge and succeeds so well that Larry McMurtry and James Lee Burke have offered their praise. --Lee Child, The New York Times Book Review Set in the 1970s in the vast and arid landscape of the Texas panhandle, this darkly comic and stunningly mature literary debut tells the story of a car thief and his brother who set out to recover some stolen money and inadvertently kidnap a Mennonite girl who has her own reasons for being on the run. Troy Falconer returns home after years of working as a solitary car thief to help his younger brother, Harlan, search for his wife, who has run away with the little money he had. When they steal a station wagon for the journey, the brothers accidentally kidnap Martha Zacharias, a Mennonite girl asleep in the back of the car. Martha turns out to be a stubborn survivor who refuses to be sent home, so together these unlikely road companions attempt to escape across the Mexican border, pursued by the police and Martha's vengeful father. The story is told partly through Troy's journal, in which he chronicles his encounters with con artists, down-and-outers, and roadside philosophers, people looking for fast money, human connection, or a home long since vanished. The journal details a breakdown that has left Troy unable to function in conventional society; he is reduced to haunting motels, stealing from men roughly his size, living with their possessions in order to have none of his own and all but disappearing into their identities. With a page-turning plot about a kidnapped child, gorgeously written scenes that probe the soul of the American West, and an austere landscape as real as any character, Presidio packs a powerful punch of anomie, dark humor, pathos, and suspense.…

A stunningly mature debut from an exciting new literary voice hailed as an heir to Cormac McCarthy and John Kennedy Toole. 8.75"x5.75", 303 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. In the early 1970s, after years of working as a solitary car thief, Troy Falconer comes back to his hometown to help his luckless younger brother, Harlan, search for his wife, who has run away with the little money Harlan had. When they steal a station wagon for the journey, the brothers accidentally kidnap Martha Zacharias, a Mennonite girl asleep in the back of the car. Martha turns out to be a stubborn survivor who refuses to be sent home, so together the unlikely road companions make their way toward the Mexican border, pursued by the police and Martha's vengeful father. Before returning home, Troy had suffered a breakdown and spent his days robbing motel rooms, living under the identities of the men whom he stole, and chronicling his encounters with fellow down-and-outers and con artists in a journal. Now shackled to Harlan, who carries a heartbreaking secret, and Martha, who has already seen more than her share of trouble, Troy guides the trio across the barren vastness of West Texas toward their inevitable fate.
