| book description |

National Bestseller ""A warm, funny, loving novel. . . . It's an American original.""â€”Ann Patchett,Â New York TimesÂ bestselling author ofÂ Tom Lake ""Searing and sublimeÂ â€¦Â Walter is a slyly adept social critic, and has clearly invested his protagonist with all of the outrage and heartbreak he himself feels about the dark course our world has taken ... WhatÂ gets us all throughÂ â€¦ are novels like this one.â€ Leigh Haber, Los Angeles Times. From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Ruinsâ€”and in the propulsive spirit of Charles Portisâ€™ True Gritâ€”comes a hilarious, empathetic, and brilliantly provocative adventure through life in modern America, about a reclusive journalist forced back into the world to rescue his kidnapped grandchildren. Rhys Kinnick has gone off the grid. At Thanksgiving a few years back, a fed-up Rhys punched his conspiracy-theorist son-in-law in the mouth, chucked his smartphone out a car window and fled for a cabin in the woods, with no one around except a pack of hungry raccoons. Now Kinnickâ€™s old life is about to land right back on his crumbling doorstep. Can this failed husband and father, a man with no internet and a car that barely runs, reemerge into a broken world to track down his missing daughter and save his sweet, precocious grandchildren from the members of a dangerous militia? With the help of his caustic ex-girlfriend, a bipolar retired detective, and his only friend (who happens to be furious with him), Kinnick heads off on a wild journey through cultural lunacy and the rubble of a life he thought heâ€™d left behind. So Far Gone is a rollicking, razor-sharp, and moving road trip through a fractured nation, from a writer who has been called â€œa genius of the modern American momentâ€ (Philadelphia Inquirer).
