Items related to They Shoot Horses, Dont They? (Midnight classics)
The depression of the 1930s led people to desperate measures to survive. The marathon dance craze, which flourished at that time, seemed a simple way for people to earn extra money - dancing the hours away for cash. But the underside of that craze was filled with a competition and violence unknown to most ballrooms. A lurid tale of dancing and desperation: Horace McCoy?s classic American novel captures the dark side of the 1930s.

Review:
?Sordid, pathetic, senselessly exciting...has the immediacy - and the significance - of a nerve-shattering explosion? New Republic ?Were it not in its physical details so carefully documented, it would be lurid beyond itself? Nation ?Language is not minced in this short novel which presents life in its most brutal aspect? Saturday Review of Literature
