Synopsis

From the actor and writer Ethan Hawke: a piercing novel of love, marriage, and renewal.Jimmy is AWOL from the army, but--with characteristic fierceness and terror--he's about to embark on the biggest commitment of his life. Christy is pregnant with Jimmy's child, and she's determined to head home, with or without Jimmy, to face up to her past and prepare for the future. Somehow, barreling across America from Albany to New Orleans to Ohio and Texas in a souped-up Chevy Nova, Christy and Jimmy are transformed from passionate but conflicted lovers into a young family on a magnificent journey. Ash Wednesday is a novel of blazing emotion and remarkable grace, a tale that captures the intensity--the excitement, fear, and joy--of being on the threshold of the mysterious country of marriage and parenthood. Powerful, assured, large of heart, and punctuated by moments of tremendous humor, it represents, for Hawke the novelist, a major leap forward.

International shipping times may take longer than expected due to customs, weather or the destination country mail service. See our shipping matrix for any questions about rates and shipping time estimates.

International customers are responsible for paying any taxes or import duties that are owed as we do not pay duties for items, nor are they added to your shipping costs.

We are very sorry for any inconvience, but due to fraud concerns we do not accept checks, cash, money orders or E-checks.

About Never Enough Stuff

We are a family run business that started in 2001. Our love for books started from being part of a larger family of teachers and a small volume educational publisher - my father-in-law. We were introduced to the business of book selling through the same strong family ties and we mentored with a longtime family bookseller before going out on our own. Our business is run honestly with the primary focus being customer satisfaction and service.If you have any questions or are looking for a specific book please ask.
