Due West
Paulette Jiles’s 2016 novel, News of the World, sold 850,000 copies, got shortlisted for the National Book Award, and was hailed as a Western for our times before its film rights were quickly acquired. Set in the aftermath of the Civil War, it tells the story of Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd (played by Tom Hanks in the screen adaptation, premiering Christmas Day), a Texan who travels from town to town reading newspapers to a predominantly illiterate public, and his unlikely friendship with a 10-year-old girl (Helena Zengel) he rescues from the Native Americans who kidnapped her. Kidd agrees to return the girl to her closest living relatives, near San Antonio, and together the pair travel hundreds of miles through a postwar American West. READ ON
