CLARK GIFFORD'S BODY
New York: Random House, 1942. First Edition. Hardcover. A paranoid tour de force of political noir, this novel skips back and forth in time, interspersing newspaper clippings and court transcripts with the reactions and reminiscences of the politicians, generals, businessmen, journalists, waiters, and soldiers who double as the actors and the chorus in a drama over which, finally, they have no control. Fearing (1902-61) was a major poet of the Depression era, as well as an influence on the Beat Generation. Octavo. Original red cloth binding, with white and black stamping. Some light wear to the dust jacket; else very good or better. Very good / Very good. Item #75338
