Longlisted for the 2011 Man Booker Prize, deWitt\'s dazzlingly original second novel is a darkly funny, offbeat western about a reluctant assassin and his murderous brother. *Also appeared in January Buyer\'s Notes* Jacket image not finalised..
It is a violent, lustful odyssey through the underworld of the 1850s frontier and boasts a rather fantastic jacket.
The book pays homage to the classic Western, and is filled with a cast of losers, cheaters, and ne\'er-do-wells from all walks of life.
