About This Item

New York: Delacorte Press, 1990. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Near fine. Each is signed by Elmore Leonard on the half-title. The basis of the hit movie starring John Travolta and Danny DeVito, Get Shorty chronicles the over-the-top, sometimes violent Hollywood misadventures of a Florida mob loan shark who chases a deadbeat client all the way to Tinseltown and decides to stick around and make movies. Octavo, two volumes. The Advance Reading Copy is bound in the original printed paper wrappers, with just a hint of edgewear. The First Trade Edition is also fine in a nearly fine dust jacket.

Synopsis

Get Shorty is a 1990 novel by American novelist Elmore Leonard. In 1995, the novel was adapted into a film of the same name.
