'His fiction,' Roy Blount Jr. has said, 'is the funniest I know.' Library of America now presents the definitive Portis collection, featuring all five of his novels -- Norwood (1966), True Grit (1968), The Dog of the South (1979), Masters of Atlantis (1985), and Gringos (1991) -- and his collected stories, including the imaginary travelogue 'Nights can turn cool in Viborra' and the haunting 'I don't talk service no more,' set in a psychiatric facility. A selection of Portis's nonfiction highlights his journalism from the civil rights movement, his coverage of the Nashville music scene in the 1960s, and the beguiling family memoir 'Combinations of Jacksons.'" 650 0 $a Americans $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Americans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807488 655 7 $a Black humor. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726518 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Humorous fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726649 655 7 $a Western fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726776 655 7 $a Black humor. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Humorous fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Western fiction. $2 lcgft 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Portis, Charles. $t Norwood. 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Portis, Charles. $t True grit. 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Portis, Charles. $t The dog of the south. 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Portis, Charles. $t Masters of Atlantis. 700 12 $i Container of (work): $a Portis, Charles. $t Gringos. 700 1 $a Jennings, Jay, $d 1957- $e editor. 830 0 $a Library of America ; $v 369. 941 $a 4 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240403014204.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117024007.0 952 $l WXPD305 $d 20231115010742.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20230630011111.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=784B3734170B11EEA3C6068B3DECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
