Description:
"[Harrison] knows life in a way that few will admit to, and writes about it in a ribald, vigorous, and intelligent fashion. . . . A national treasure." --Chicago Tribune
Review Quotes:
"I found myself racing along, utterly caught up in the momentum of the story and eager to find out how it would turn out . . . Mr. Harrison's perceptions are jagged and cutting . . . a remarkably well-plotted story."--Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, The New York Times
"A singular joy to read."--Harry Crews
"One of the very best fiction writers in America."--Playboy
"Jack Kerouac's highway hopes claimed by studded tires! . . . What amazes here is the fact that Harrison never lets up--from chemical high to emotional plunge, one disconnected cry after another. For those who enjoy driving without a steering wheel, this book is a must."--Fiction International
