"A  chilling and often brilliant novel."--The  New York Times   "An impressive literary performance, and Mr. Wright  has more than confirmed the sense that he is a  most distinguished literary  performer."--The Wall Street Journal   "Bursts with originality."--The New  York Times Book Review   "Ravishing... triumphant."--The New  Yorker "An  astonishing novel."--Toni Morrison

Synopsis
This extraordinary work that was met with both  critical and popular acclaim in hardcover reads like  a frightening, resonant nineties version of Jack  Kerouac'sOn The Road. Author  Stephen Wright transports readers from the  claustrophobia of the suburbs to the freedom of the open  road and the pursuit of the American dream--or  nightmare--in this remarkable novel that reveals the  darkest side of our civilized society. It begins  with the story of Wylie Jones, a nice man who walks  out of a backyard barbecue and embarks on a  postmodern adventure of disturbing proportions. Stealing  his neighbor's Ford Galaxy 500, he traverses a  country filled with unexpected turmoil--where  crackheads lurk in the suburbs, a lesbian couple run a  Las Vegas wedding chapel, and a fabulous L.A. dinner  party is blown to bits. By turns scathing and  hilarious, outrageous and on-targetGoing  Nativeis the story of one man's odyssey  into the heart of darkness at the center of  contemporary American life.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
