Description

"A primer for Big Bad Area disillusionment, unsparing in its manifestation of Nyis devastating entropy."—The Village Style. With a brand new introduction by Jonathan Lethem.First printed in 1933, Miss Lonelyhearts stays among the most surprising works of 20th-century American literature, as unnerving as a glob of black bile vomited up in a church social: vacant, blasphemous, and terrible. Occur Ny throughout the Depression and possibly Northwestis most effective function, Miss Lonelyhearts worries an anonymous guy designated to make a magazine advice column — but after a while he starts to split underneath the endless agony of these who create in, pleading him for advice. Not able to locate solutions, and he tumbles into alcoholism and a chaos motivated by their own spiritual gap, together with his unstable Christianity ridiculed to blade-edged shards by his toxic publisher.
