Running After Antelope by Scott Carrier ➤ Counterpoint 2001 First Edition
Running After Antelope by Scott Carrier Counterpoint 2001 First Edition
Title: Running After Antelope
Author: Scott Carrier
Format: Hardcover
Publisher: Counterpoint 2001
Edition: First Edition
ISBN: 9781582431116
Size: 5.75 X 8.5 * 130 pages
Synopsis: From the jacket: SCOTT CARRIER has been traveling the West in search of stories for the better part of his life. Since 1983, some of what he's found has been broadcast on National Public Radio's, "All Things Considered" and most recently on Public Radio International's, "This American Life." Running After Antelope collects the best of these radio pieces, as well as longer stories written for Harper's and Esquire.
Like In Our Time, which unifies its disparate contents through between-the-acts episodes drawn from Hemingway's war experiences, Running After Antelope strings its many-colored beads on a single narrative thread-Carrier's ongoing, passionate attempt to run down a pronghorn antelope. Scenes from this picaresque quest-odd, inspired, and most times futile-are juxtaposed with stories about little league, sibling rivalry, falling in love, and working in the journalist's trade. Together they form a most unique record of a most unique life, a life that embraces discovery and celebrates pursuit for the sake of the chase.
Overall Condition: Very good: The book does not look new and has been read but is in excellent condition. There is no obvious damage to the cover the dust jacket (with minor wear and tear) is included. There are no missing or damaged pages, no creases or tears, and no underlining/highlighting of text or writing in the margins. It may have very minimal identifying marks on the inside cover as well as very minimal wear and tear. See images.
Secure shipping bubble-wrapped in a new box/mailer.
2026--U.S. shipping for this (One Pound Media Mail) is $4.47 with tracking.

Just about all the books are USED books. Some have been used more gently than others. Some have been in libraries and have typical library extras. Some are so old and/or interesting that they are being offered for the sake of preservation regardless of the condition they are in.
