Description:
Toronto: Stoddart, 1988. Roger Caron's first fictional novel - the same author that gave us the Governor General's Award winning " Go-Boy" - a true life story of his life in prison. In this novel - Lloyd Stonechild - a half-breed Indian begins life on a reserve in Western Manitoba and grows up strong, handsome, and ominously quiet. One bad turn after another leads him to prison in Kansas and a harrowing escape to Canada. Natural-coloured boards with gilt title print to spine. No ownership markings. A remainder mark to bottom edge. A bright, very nice copy.. First Canadian Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine.
