NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (7.75 x 5.3 x 0.75 inches). Preface by Robert Coover. Introduction by Patrick McGrath. Language: English. Weight: 9.5 ounces. Trade Paperback. John Hawkes, Jr. (1925 1998) was a postmodern American novelist, known for the intensity of his work, which suspended some traditional constraints of narrative fiction. Hawkes was educated at Harvard College, where fellow students included John Ashbery, Frank O'Hara, and Robert Creeley. Although he published his first novel, The Cannibal, in 1949, it was The Lime Twig (1961) that first won him acclaim. His second novel, The Beetle Leg (1951) , an intensely surrealistic Western set in a Montana landscape, came to be viewed by many critics as one of the landmark novels of 20th-century American literature. Hawkes drew much of his inspiration from Vladimir Nabokov and considered himself a follower of the Russian-American translingual author. Says Hawkes, "I began to write fiction on the assumption that the true enemies of the novel were plot, character, setting and theme, and having once abandoned these familiar ways of thinking about fiction, totality of vision or structure was really all that remained. Like the poem, the experimental fiction is an exclamation of psychic materials which come to the writer all readily distorted, prefigured in that inner schism between the rational and the absurd." This volume brings together three early novels by John Hawkes. The Lime Twig is set in the underworld of postwar London; Second Skin is a tale of suicide and new life on two mythical islands; and Travesty is a monologue on fear and eroticism that takes place during a drive at night.
