Eleven Months in Bunbury by James Ricks

Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Pages are sunned. A few foxing marks on inside front cover and title page.

Nelson works in a sawmill by day and makes love to the beautiful and older Verlene by night. His family is crazy, and it's amazing that he isn't. This is a bongs for breakfast, beer for lunch and scotch for dinner kind of family.

Twenty-one-year-old James Ricks doesn't pull his punches in this fabulous, rollicking, colloquial novel, which shows us how tough and how loving life can be.
