Item Description

Car Camping: The Book of Desert Adventures

by Mark Sundeen

2005 edition

First published in 1960, this is classic travel memoir of an almost forgotten era. Succinct prose creates unforgettable characters as the seemingly aimless author travels about the Southwest in a beat-up stationwagon.

"A riotous, beautiful, totally original road novel masquerading as a travel book. Sundeen's America, comprised of equal parts Gorgeous and Awful, absolutely shimmers with life. The prose is pure, wild, naïve, and poetic; the characters leap off the page in the dunderheadedness and sincerity. A brilliant an auspicious debut. -George Saunders A stunningly wonderful writer. Sundeen's prose is sparse but the images he creates are alive and infinite. This is a book to be savored and remembered." -Hubert Selby Jr.

Pre-loved. In very good condition. May have small Stewards Library Insignia.
