Though known today for his singular, stunning narratives that emerge from between the lines of anecdotes, quotes and small thoughts, in his early days David Markson paid the rent by writing punchy, dramatic novels. On the heels of a new double edition of his steamy noirs Epitaph for a Tramp and Epitaph for a Deadbeat comes a new edition of The Ballad of Dingus Magee. Replete with blasphemy, bullets and bordellos, this hilarious tale shows the early Markson at his flagrant best.
