'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. 'One of the finest achievements of modern American fiction' The Independent
