In this vivid and utterly transfixing love story between two men set in the 19th-century American Midwest, Douglas Fortescue is a successful poet in England who flees the country following an Oscar Wilde-like scandal; Joshua Jenkyns is a feral young outlaw who was taught how to shoot a man at age six. The two men meet when Joshua robs Douglas's carriage and takes him hostage; soon, a remarkable secret is revealed, and these two very different men grow closer, even as Douglas's brother tries to "save" him from his uncivilized surroundings. Missouri was first published in Germany to wide acclaim; now available in English for the first time.
