Now, \u003ci\u003eThe Woman Lit by Fireflies\u003c\/i\u003e, one of his best-loved books, is available as a Grove paperback.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Across the odd contours of the American landscape, people are searching for the things that aren’t irretrievably lost, for the incandescent beneath the ordinary. An ex-Bible student with raucously asocial tendencies rescues the preserved body of an Indian chief from the frigid depths of Lake Superior in a caper that nets a wildly unexpected bounty. A band of sixties radicals, now approaching middle age, reunite to free an old comrade from a Mexican jail. A fifty-year-old suburban housewife flees quietly from her abusive businessman husband at a highway rest stop, climbs a fence, and explores the bittersweet pageant of the preceding years within the sanctuary of an Iowa cornfield.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Woman Lit by Fireflies\u003c\/i\u003e is the work of a classic writer at the very top of his form--a hard-living, hard-writing hero of American letters whose novellas comprise a sweeping tribute to the nation’s heartland and the colorful, courageous characters who inhabit it.","brand":"Blue Vase Bulk","offers":[{"title":"Used \/ 9780802143754-001","offer_id":43880383578173,"sku":"9780802143754-001","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/16078873482473.jpg?v=1792866038","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/the-woman-lit-by-fireflies","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
