About This Item

NY: RINEHART & CO.. AS NEW- A nice fresh copy! ( only one very tiny quarter inch tear to the DJ ) . Fine. Hardcover. First Edition. 1951.

Synopsis

Barbary Shore is Norman Mailer's second published novel, written after Mailer's great success with his 1948 debut The Naked and the Dead. It concerns a protagonist who rents a room in a Brooklyn boarding house with the intention of writing a novel. Wounded during World War II, he is an amnesiac, and much of his past is a secret to himself. After Rinehart & Company published the novel in 1951, it received poor reviews and sold poorly.
