A review by infinimata
True Grit by Charles Portis

5.0

Seems a shame we don't sing the Ballad of Charles Portis that often anymore, but read this and see what we're missing out on. For the young'uns, an oat opera of fiesty galloping energy; for everyone else, a riotous comedy of frontier manners. Come back to 'Grit' every ten years or so and see how differently your reactions are each time.
