First Edition of The Cadence of Grass by Thomas McGuane
First edition of this savage comedy masterpiece. Octavo, original publisher's half cloth. Fine in a fine dust jacket, price-clipped. Jacket design by Chip Kidd. Jacket photograph by Robert Adams.
'The Cadence of Grass' by Thomas McGuane follows a restless young man chafing against the expectations of family, romance, and small-town Midwestern life. As he drifts through strained relationships and half-formed ambitions, Thomas McGuane captures the sharp humor, quiet despair, and emotional volatility of a generation coming of age in postwar America. Less driven by plot than by mood, the novel moves with a tense, ironic rhythm, offering an engaging portrait of youthful disillusionment and the urge to escape a life that feels already decided.
