Description: A Walk on the Wild Side Algren, Nelson Published by Farrar, Strauss & Cudahy, New York, 1956. First Edition. Hardcover with top pine head edge tidy chipped else good in dust jacket with tears and wear else intact with price present front flap. With its depictions of the downtrodden prostitutes, bootleggers, and hustlers of Perdido Street in the old French Quarter of 1930s New Orleans, Nelson Algren's A Walk in the Wild Side has found a place in the imaginations of all generations since it first appeared. As Algren admitted, the book "wasn't written until long after it had been walked . . . I found my way to the streets on the other side of the Southern Pacific station, where the big jukes were singing something called 'Walking the Wild Side of Life.' I've stayed pretty much on that side of the curb ever since."
