Charles Bowden

Light Paperback (1 lb or less)

California

The magnificent second novel from the legendary author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Following the astonishing success of his first novel, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Ken Kesey wrote what Charles Bowden calls "one of the few essential books written by an American in the last half century." This wild-spirited tale tells of a bitter strike that rages through a small lumber town along the Oregon coast. Bucking that strike out of sheer cussedness are the Stampers. Out of the Stamper family's rivalries and betrayals Ken Kesey has crafted a novel with the mythic impact of Greek tragedy.

Sometimes a Great Notion

07474da1-908a-4b78-a13b-9d61e496c3f3-1

1987 reprint, Penguin Books, 628 pages. Ken Kesey’s second novel (after One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest). The cover still has some shine, though there are scratches, bends, spine creases, and corner and edge wear. A name is written in ink on the flyleaf page. I did find some maginal notes and underlining, etc sporadically in the book. The pages are tanned from age.
