The Last Carousel

A newly designed edition of one of the most worldly collections in Nelson Algren’s repertoire with a new introduction by Colin Asher. "Algren at the top of his form."—New York Times The fiction and reportage included in The Last Carousel, the last of Nelson Algren’s works published during his lifetime, was written on ships and in ports of call around the world—from boxing matches and brothels to gambling tables and horse races to reminiscences of Algren’s beloved Chicago White Sox. In this collection, not just Algren’s intensity but his diverse range of interests are revealed and celebrated through his gritty and unabridged accounts of the vagabond lifestyle.
