Never Come Morning
of Nelson Algren, Kurt Vonnegut Jr. (Introduction), H.E.F Donohue (Contributor)
Description
"An unusual book and a brilliant book." âThe New York Times"One of the finest works of American literature that I have read." âJames T. Farrell"A knockout." âSaturday Review of Literature"Never Come Morning depicts the intensity of feeling, the tawdry but potent dreams, the crude but forceful poetry, and the frustrated longing for human dignity residing in the lives of the Poles of Chicago's Northwest Side, and this revelation informs us all that there lies an ocean of life at our doorstepâan unharnessed, unchanneled and unknown ocean..." âRichard Wright"Utter sincerity and psychological truth." âPhilip Rahv in The Nation"Mr. Algren is out to shock, but he does so without seeming to sensationalize. I, for one, found myself believing." âClinton Fadiman in The New Yorker"The girls sitting around the juke-box in Mama Tomek's, the boys playing under the El, the look of Chicago streets in the rain... It is the poetry of familiar things that is missing in the other Chicago novels... Algren is a poet the Chicago slums." âMalcolm Cowley"A book, a true book, is the writer's confessional. For, whether he would have it so or not, he is betrayed, directly or indirectly, by his characters, into presenting, publicly, his innermost feelings." âNelson Algren
