Description:
This definitive biography of Nelson Algren is an exquisitely detailed, engrossing portrait of a master who, despite his talent, abandoned fiction and fell into obscurity.
The cause of his decline was never clear - until now.
Drawing from interviews, archives, and the FBI's previously unreleased file on Algren, Asher captures the full, novelistic story of Algren's life.
