A new, slim edition of Nelson Algren's most powerful and enduring work, winner of the first National Book Award, featuring a new introduction by Algren biographer Colin Asher. A novel of rare genius, The Man with the Golden Arm describes the dissolution of a card-dealing WWII veteran named Frankie Machine, caught in the act of slowly cutting his own heart into wafer-thin slices.
