True Grit by Charles Portis Book Summary

The #1 New York Times bestselling classic frontier adventure novel that inspired two award-winning films!

Charles Portis has long been acclaimed as one of America’s foremost writers. True Grit, his most famous novel, was first published in 1968, and became the basis for two movies, the 1969 classic starring John Wayne and, in 2010, a new version starring Academy Award® winner Jeff Bridges and written and directed by the Coen brothers. True Grit tells the story of Mattie Ross, who is just fourteen when the coward Tom Chaney shoots her father down in Fort Smith, Arkansas, and robs him of his life, his horse, and $150 in cash. Mattie leaves home to avenge her father’s blood. With one-eyed Rooster Cogburn, the meanest available U.S. Marshal, by her side, Mattie pursues the killer into Indian Territory. True Grit is eccentric, cool, straight, and unflinching, like Mattie herself. From a writer of true status, this is an American classic through and through.

Need a title.. A wonderful book.

Best book. I I think this is the best book I’ve ever read in my life.

A classic in every sense of the word.. True Grit stands the test of time, though many of the scenarios and situations indeed are of another time. A western by genre, True Grit is a genre bending tale about what it means to have ’true grit.'

True Grit. A well written book. Captures the time, place and characters vividly. A captivating yarn.

True Grit. True good reading.. This book grips you, draws you in, won’t let go of you til the last page. Then you wish there were a hundred more. Mattie is an odd, but lovable, duck with a deep sense of justice. We all love to see justice done. Mattie gathers a teammate, said to have grit, who, though wild and woolly, shares her love of justice. Together, their determination and true grit propel them into one tight squeeze after another on their quest. They stand in the company of Don Quixote, Huck Finn, and Captain Ahab.

One of the average American novels.. True Grit is the story of a fourteen-year-old girl avenging her father’s death and it has been stated as “one of the great American novels”. A simple story, but unfortunately the characters are one-dimensional and the story is a dull, slow burn.
