A twentieth-century classic. The book that inspired Lou Reed's most
famous song. Foreword by Russell Banks. Dove Findhom is a naive
country boy who busts out of Hicksville, Texas in pursuit of a
better life in New Orleans. Amongst the downtrodden prostitutes,
bootleggers and hustlers of the old French Quarter, Dove finds only
hopelessness, crime and despair. His quest uncovers a harrowing
grotesque of the American Dream. "A Walk in the Wild Side" is an
angry, lonely, large-hearted and often funny masterpiece that has
captured the imaginations of every generation since its first
publication in 1956, and that rendered a world later immortalised
in Lou Reed's classic song.
