'A masterful writer' - RAYMOND CARVER Over the course of four
celebrated works of fiction and almost forty years, Richard Ford
has crafted an ambitious, incisive and singular view of American
life as lived. 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.
