Synopsis:

In this collection of conversations, Nelson Algren reveals himself with all the gruff humour, deflating insight, honesty, and critical brilliance that marked his career. He discusses everything from his childhood to his compulsion to write to his relationship with Simon de Beauvoir.

About the Author: H.E.F. Donohue is also the author of The Higher Animals.

Nelson Algren (1909-1981) won the National Book Award in 1950 for The Man with the Golden Arm. His works include Walk on the Wild Side, The Neon Wilderness, and Chicago: City on the Make, the last published by the University of Chicago Press.

Soft cover. Condition: Good. Second Edition. Light general wear to covrs. Spine not creased. Name and date to half-title page, otherwise internaally clean. 333pp Nelson Algren was an American writer. Algren may be best known for The Man with the Golden Arm, a 1949 novel that won the National Book Award and was adapted as the 1955 film of the same name. According to Harold Augenbraum, 'in the late 1940s and early 1950s he was one of the best known literary writers in America'. He also wrote 'Walk on the Wildside', which much later inspired the title of the Lou Reed song. In the last years of his life, the work that Ernest Hemingway once said "beat Dostoyevsky" was so undervalued that much of it was out of print. Size: 140mm x 215mm. Book. Seller Inventory # 022066
