McCORMACK, Derek
Grab Bag

2 interrelated novels, Dark Rides and Wish Book, set in the same small rural city, in different eras (1950s, 1930s), each characterized by McCormack’s spare and elliptical prose. 

This book was the 3d in the “Little House on the Bowery” series edited by Dennis Cooper.

“Boy, can Dennis Cooper find ’em! Grab Bag will grab you, all right; plain, simple, and hard.”
—John Waters
