This book, discarded of course at the English Department, came home with me and sat leadenly on the bedside table for years. Once I finally got past the introduction, it was a fairly readable biography in bottles of Fitzgerald, Faulkner, Hemingway, and O'Neill. Good description of the clinical mysteries of alcoholsm and discussion of how in twentieth-century America fetishized hard drinking and breakdowns in writers. I'd never really thought about it but that was true. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
