Through Bascombe--protean, funny, profane, wise, often inappropriate--we've witnessed the aspirations, sorrows, longings, achievements and failings of an American life in the twilight of the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow, in \u003cem\u003eLet Me Be Frank with You\u003c\/em\u003e, Ford reinvents Bascombe in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. In four richly luminous narratives, Bascombe (and Ford) attempts to reconcile, interpret and console a world undone by calamity. It is a moving and wondrous and extremely funny odyssey through the America we live in at this moment. Ford is here again working with the maturity and brilliance of a writer at the absolute height of his powers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Ecco","offers":[{"title":"Let Me Be Frank with You: A Frank Bascombe Book | Richard Ford | Paperback | 9780061692079 | New | Fiction 1562713","offer_id":48162262581400,"sku":"1562713","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/91igrK5n-4L.jpg?v=1771865606","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/let-me-be-frank-with-you-a-frank-bascombe-book","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
