Like a fiery elephant : the story of B.S. Johnson

Coe, Jonathan2004
Books, Manuscripts
B.S. Johnson was a well-known novelist in Britain whose innovations included a novel published in a box so its unbound chapters could be read in any order. But in 1973, depression caused him to take his own life at the age of 40. This biography reveals his fierce commitment to truth and honesty.
