Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. Book Club Edition. Clean & tight copy, unread in Very Good condition, Book Club Edition. "Tom Dardis examines the Hollywood careers of five distinguished writers not from the usual angle: What did Hollywood do to them? But from a novel one: What did they do to Hollywood? I.e., how do Faulkner, Fitzgerald, Huxley, West and Agee look, as screenwriters, if one considers them not as victims and/or sell-outs, the conventional pop cliche, but as what Dardis shows they in fact were: serious professionals. He gives us, from letters, interviews and other original research, much new and interesting material on this hitherto unexplored junction between literary and movie history."---Dwight Macdonald.
