About This Item
New York, NY: Grove Press Books, 1989 Grove Press Books, New York. 1988. Hardcover. Stated First Edition/First printing by line number. Book is tight, square, and unmarked. Book Condition: VG+; small break in the paper on the board on the rear upper tip. DJ: Near Fine; NOT Price clipped; bumping to rear upper tip cover. White boards with black cloth overlay on spine with bright silver lettering on the spine. 369 pp 8vo. In 1940 Odets was the dominant voice of American theater, put him on the cover of Time magazine, and make him the spokesman for liberals and the left. He kept the journal for only one year in which he struggles with the artistic, personal, and social questions that constituted the fabric of his life, and of America's in the 1930s. In this passionate, unflinchingly honest, and deeply revealing journal, the artist and the human being emerges. A clean very presentable copy.
