Miss Lonelyhearts (1933) by Nathanael West
- FrankWilhoit 1mo agoA ghastly little work, not even written to shock, and with the bare minimum command of language. But do read it -- that much is quickly done -- and then go read what people said about it, at the time and since. It will fill in a gap in your knowledge that you did not know was there, like a poorly-crafted dental implant.
