About This Item
Tight, square, uncreased spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Very little shelf-wear. Black Sparrow Press began posthumously publishing Fante's then out-of-print works in the late 1970s, at the suggestion of house favorite Charles Bukowski ('Fante was my god,' he said), who had happened upon the writer's work in the LA Public Library. West of Rome includes two novellas, The Orgy and My Dog Stupid, which Yvan Attal adapted into a 2019 film, Mon chien Stupide. Signature BSP matte cover and industry-reshaping format; designed by the press's untrained virtuoso Barbara Martin. 188 pp.
