The Misfits

A story of four lost souls – the beautiful Roslyn who has never belonged to anyone or anthything, and three other misfits who roam the open land existing on the little money made from riding in rodeos – who meet in Reno to discover that freedom has its price, and the heart its rules.

Many are the novels (often published years previously) which can be seen in the bookshops banded as “the novel of the film”. The Misfits is also a novel of a film, but of a totally different kind. For Mr. Miller wrote it, in novel form, as a guide to the director and the artists in the making of a film already scheduled for production. It is thus the first in its genre, in the author’s words “a cinema novel”.
