First edition, first printing (stated). Hardcover. 403 pp. Fine in near fine, price clipped dust jacket with a trace of wear at the extremities. In the author's sixth novel, Robert Penn Warren returns to the contemporary scene of his 1946 Pulitzer Prize winning "All The King's Men". The story takes place in Johnstown, Tennessee in the 1950s where a young man is trapped in a cave and Johnstown becomes the center of national attention, attracting television cameras, promoters and newscasters all attempting to cash in on the rescue attempt. The author moves backward in time to crucial happenings in the lives of each individual in the character cast, an astonishingly variegated group to come together in small town Tennessee. With uncompromising frankness, he reveals their tangled relationships, the complicated motives and actions that have brought them to where they are the moment Jasper Harrick is reported missing.
