Foreseeing a hopeless future in barrooms and parking lots, cagey 13-year-old
Luli McMullen bolts headlong from the heartland, aiming at Las Vegas where
she expects to find herself a sugar daddy.
Almost immediately, crooked-bodied Eddie Kreezer, a roving obsessive with a violent
streak, and a fading but lovely grifter named Glenda begin to do battle for Lulis
head and heart.
On their perilous journey westward, Luli is introduced to drifters, lowlifes, strippers,
speed freaks, gold-diggers, and a Libertarian with a dog named Karl. Along the
way, she learns the truth of American rootlessness and discovers both the power
and the peril of her own sexual curiosity.
Part coming-of-age story and part raggedy picaresque, Hick leads us at a blinding
pace down broken roads through a world that seems to this extraordinary and
indomitable young girl dangerously uncharted.
