Product Description
Review
"The intensity of his feeling, the accuracy of his thought, make me wonder if any other writer of our time has shown us more exactly the human basis of our democracy. Though Algren often defines his positive values by showing us what happens in their absence, his hell burns with passion for heaven."--"The New York Times Book Review"
""A Walk on the Wild Side" . . . deserves to read by every "Catch-22 "and" Cuckoo's Nest" freak just so they can find out what opened the door for [these] two novels . . . It's not only that before Heller and Kesey there was Algren. It's that Algren is where they came from."--"Rolling Stone"
"Mr. Algren, boy, you are good."--"Ernest Hemingway"
