Beschreibung

Quarto. 241 pp. Scarce hardcover first edition of the author's experimental tour-de-force (which was recently republished in paperback by popular demand). Richard Kostelanetz, noted literary critic and author, describes the book and its story of missing twin pop stars, Pookie and Paul Sweetmeat, as "fragments splayed rectilinearly across the manuscript pages, its language drawing upon the elliptical style of wire services and its typography upon typewriters (so that the manuscript itself had to be photocopied for definitive publication)." The book was positively reviewed by R.Z. Sheppard in Time magazine at the time of its 1971 publication. Minor shelf and handling wear. Head and tail of spine and corners and edges of boards gently bumped and rubbed. Faint soiling to text block. Soiling and significant edge wear to dust jacket (see photos); dust jacket is now enclosed in a protective mylar cover. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers ABE-1685126023031
