5.0 out of 5 stars
a proto-gothic great,
By headman (uk) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Out With the Stars (Paperback)
One of the great New York novels. If you're an admirer of any sort of baroque sensibility, then this is a must-read. Deeply cultured, deeply weird, and deeply original, James Purdy gives us a tour de force of compression, (not a quality usually associated with baroque, I'll agree), spinning a dreamy web around an idea of a certain era in the city's artistic life. These characters will live with you for decades, if you invite them in....
