The Miracle Life of Edgar Mint: A Novel
- Used Book in Good Condition
â€œProfound and stirring . . . brilliantly executed.â€â€•Wall Street Journal
â€œRambling and generous . . . it reads at times like a John Irving novel touched up by Roy Blount Jr. . . . Sweet, sad, and refreshing.â€â€•New York Times Book Review

â€œ[Edgarâ€™s] soul is as spotless as John Wayneâ€™s .45, and so is Udallâ€™s sharp and rangy prose. His similes sting, his sentences go bang, and his chapters roll like the wagon wheels across the harsh Mormon desert of right and wrong.â€â€•GQ

â€œExtraordinary. . . . There are pages that are just fall-down funny. . . . Itâ€™s like nothing else youâ€™ve ever read.â€â€•Newsweek

â€œVibrant, big-hearted. . . . A poignant, picaresque odyssey.â€?â€•Chicago Tribune

â€œA marvelous first novel. . . . An adept mix of humor and pathos.â€â€•Los Angeles Times

â€œAn ingenious tale [that] takes its heart from Dickens and its soul from Americaâ€™s great outlaw West.â€â€•Elle
