520 1 $a"First published in 1967 when it was deemed too revolutionary for its day, Eustace Chisholm and the Works, in the words of its author, "outraged the anesthetic, hypocritical, preppy, and stagnant New York literary establishment." Set in Chicago of the late 1930s, the novel centers on young Amos Ratcliffe and hard-bitten Daniel Haws. The pair comprises just two of "The Works": a group of displaced people gathered around Eustace Chisholm and his run-down apartment, all searching for love amid the ruins of the Great Depression."--BOOK JACKET.
