Near Fine in Good dj
Description
Boston: Little, Brown and Company. Near Fine in Good dj. 1949. First Edition. Hardcover. [nice solid copy, light shelfwear, minor smudging to page edges; jacket edgeworn, very slight paper loss at several corners, a couple of closed tears with associated creasing]. A "two-fisted story of men in jail," set in Alabama, with a jacket blurb by none other than Arthur Miller, who calls it "very beautiful: one of the few novels whose people live a life of their own." A contemporary reviewer singled out the author's "meticulous ear for dialogue." The central character is named Presley Cargile, and sounds like a prototype for the young rebels of the 1950s: "Illiterate, handsome and violent, Presley made his own rules for living in a society whose tenets he could not read and would not understand." The author, son of the popular novelist Harry Leon Wilson (a fact which goes unremarked upon; there is no biographical jacket blurb at all, in fact), wrote only two more books, well-regarded juvenile novels about a 10-year-old boy in the Tennessee mountains. .

Recent American literature is a survivors’ literature, suggests Warner Berthoff in this summary characterization of American writing since the Second World War..A chapter looking back to Henry Miller in prose and Wallace Stevens in poetry as major forefunners of these postwar developments leads to final questions of where and how, for literature, the creative impulse can still find effective expression...
