Thirty years after its original publication and twenty-nine years after it became Peter Bogdanovich’s Academy Award-winning film, Joe David Brown’s last novel seems, more than ever, an American classic. Addie Pray, PAPER MOON’s eleven-year-old heroine and narrator, is one of the most unforgettable characters in all of fiction, and certainly one of the most beloved. Set in the darkest days of the Great Depression, Paper Moon is the story of what happens when Addie’s mother is killed in a car crash, leaving her daughter in the questionable hands of Long Boy, a con-man who may or may not be her biological father. Together they set out on a rollicking journey through the Deep South, hustling every sucker in sight and proving time and time again that no matter how much money you make, it’s no fun unless you’re making it with somebody you love. Brimming with humor, pathos, and an irresistible narrative energy, this is American storytelling at its finest––tough, vibrant, and ripe for rediscovery.
