Even Cowgirls Get the Blues. First edition of a hippy underground classic, signed by the author on the half-title. It was made into a film in 1993, directed by Gus Van Sant and starring Uma Thurman as its giant-thumbed protagonist Sissy Hankshaw. A critical and commercial failure, the film nonetheless found a cult following, despite Leonard Maltin's scathing verdict that "there is not enough peyote in the entire American Southwest to render this movie comprehensible or endurable" (p. 423).
