Paperback. Zustand: Good. 288 pages. Cover wornIn this gripping novel, Beef Buddusky, who wanted no more than a one-day job when he entered the Salvation Army in Colorado Springs, finds himself swept up b y an obsessive mother with a diabolical plot. Rootless and homesick for a family , he is manipulated into joining what is cle…arly a deranged plan hatched by the first person in his wanderings to treat him kindly. The time comes when he is un willing to go further, yet not able to step all the way back. Ginny Wynn, thwart ed in her dreams of graceful living, has piled all her twisted emotions on the b ack of Gordie, her policeman son, who has never found a way to stand up to her. He asserts his manhood and independence by marrying a woman his mother would nev er approve of, and then tries to keep it secret. Ginny is determined that she wi ll be the only woman in Gordie s life, at whatever cost. The end of the battle f or the heart and soul of Ginny s son is only the beginning for Beef, who must fi nd a space to live in between the legal and moral definitions of the word, Accom plice. The portrait of this inarticulate, lonely man making his way toward a per sonal redemption is both moving and memorable.
