A Walk on the Wild Side

• Rolling Stone A Walk on the Wild Side Nelson Algren   A Walk on the Wild Side... deserves to be 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.

• New York Times Book Review A Walk on the Wild Side Nelson Algren   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.
